FINISHING

Arrange Hearts and Triangles with Right Sides facing, as shown in assembly diagram. Using long yarn tails and working through back loops only, whipstitch pieces together, skipping sts as needed to allow seams to lie flat. Weave in ends.

Round 1 (Right Side): With Right Side facing, join C in lower point of heart, ch 1, work sc evenly spaced around edges of entire piece; join with slip st in first sc. Note: For best results, work an even number of sts.

Round 2: *Ch 3, skip next sc, sc in next sc; repeat from * around; join with slip st in base of beginning ch-3. Fasten off.

Note: When working Rounds 3 and 4, skip an additional ch-space in the valleys between the tops of hearts at top of throw, to allow edging to lie flat.

Round 3 (Right Side): With Right Side facing, join A in any ch-3 space, *ch 4, drop loop from hook, insert hook from front to back through next ch-3 space, place loop back on hook and draw through to front; repeat from * around; join with slip st in base of first ch-4. Fasten off.

Round 4 (Right Side): With Right Side facing, join B in any ch-4 space, *ch 3, drop loop from hook, insert hook from front to back through next ch-4 space, place loop back on hook and draw through to front; repeat from * around; join with slip st in base of first ch-3. Fasten off. Weave in ends. Block lightly, if desired.

ABBREVIATIONS: A, B, C, D, and E = Color A, B, C, D, and E; ch = chain; dc = double crochet; hdc = half double crochet; sc = single crochet; sl st = slip stitch; st(s) = stitch(es); * = repeat whatever follows the * as indicated; [ ] = work directions in brackets the number of times specified; ( ) = work directions in parentheses into same st.
