Fourth Week of the Abstract Queen Crochet-A-Long

I don’t have much news this week. I haven’t drawn up any new patterns but I did update these ones to include the mosaic instructions: Fishies 20, Fishies Scarf, and Skyline Shawl. Please let me know if you’re waiting on a specific pattern to be updated.

And, I will be releasing this non-mosaic, non-interlocking, regular crochet scarf /shawl pattern on October 1. Check out the beautiful version Kimberly crocheted below! The pattern is called “Vickie Likes Red“.

You can purchase this pattern before I release it – you will get $1 CAD off (expired). Click the picture and then add it to your cart to see the discount!

Key for Interlocking Crochet

RS = right side: the side of your work that will show the finished design

WS = wrong side: the back of your project

Front = the side currently facing you

Back = the side not facing you

MC = main color (usually dark)

AC = accent color (usually light or multicolored)

Ch = chain

Sp = space

Sk = skip a stitch

SC = single crochet

DC = double crochet

F = DC in front, then CH 1

B = DC behind, then CH 1

ES = DC into the last window space

EF = end stitch in front: using AC, DC into the last AC window, working in front of MC

EB = end stitch in back: using AC, DC into the last AC window, working behind MC

ACF = bring the AC yarn to the side facing you

ACB = put AC yarn to the side facing away from you

I have repeated the final row from last week here, pay attention to the row numbers.
