Blackwork Drunkard’s Path Afghan

Blackwork Drunkard's Path Afghan - Coming Soon!

A solid color DK weight acrylic yarn was used for the main (background) color. A gradient and a solid color DK weight yarn were used for the contrasting (design) colors to create the look of the different “quilt” blocks. A size 6/0 (3.50 mm) crochet hook is also needed. Stitch markers are recommended to keep track of your progress. An 18″ square pillow form and 1/2″ round buttons are needed for the pillow.

What happens when you combine the style of blackwork embroidery and the curves of a drunkard’s path quilt square with interlocking filet crochet? … you get the Blackwork Drunkard’s Path Afghan!

Since two contrasting colors are used to create the designs on the different “quilt blocks”, a YouTube tutorial is also included to explain changing colors on a diagonal or curve, with a review of changing colors in a straight line.

This pattern provides both row-by-row written instructions as well as a design chart for reference. Since it contains many diagonals to create the design, it is recommended for someone who is comfortable with the interlocking filet mesh technique. If you haven’t tried diagonals on an interlocking filet mesh project yet, you can learn how on my YouTube Channel! You can also read about it on my blog!
