Snowflakes in the Attic Window Interlocking Crochet Afghan
Do you know what happens when a snowflake fanatic mixes a traditional quilt design with blackwork-style interlocking filet crochet? … You get Snowflakes in the Attic Window!
Blackwork-style designs create the window frames of nine windows, each with three beautifully detailed snowflakes! No two snowflakes are the same! This pattern also includes tethering stitches to merge the front and back layers! Additionally, the scalloped edging is worked as part of the afghan so there is no need to add a border at the end!
You can create two completely different looks by changing the background from light to dark giving the afghan the look of the midnight sky! Check out the sample below! Which color combination is your favorite?
A YouTube tutorial is provided to teach the scalloped edging, the double diagonals used at the corners of the windows for emphasis, and tethering of the layers in the large background sections. A small Practice Attic Window chart is included with the tutorial as well!
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!
