BLANKET – SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE PIECE:
The piece consists of 24 squares. Work 6 squares in each of the 4 colour combinations. When all the squares are finished, the squares are crocheted together and an edge is crocheted around the whole blanket.
SQUARES:
Using Karisma and crochet hook size 4.5 mm, read SQUARE COLOURS – in the explanations above, work according to diagram A.1. REMEMBER THE CROCHET TENSION! Each square measures approx. 24 x 24 cm.
ASSEMBLY:
Lay the squares out as shown in diagram A.2. Make sure all the squares are right-side up. Now crochet the squares together using chocolate brown in strips of 4 squares as follows: Lay the first 2 squares together, wrong side to wrong side and work 1 double crochet around the corner of both squares, * work 1 double crochet through the outermost loop of each double crochet along the one side. Work 1 double crochet around last corners, 2 chain stitches between the next 2 squares and 1 double crochet around the next corners *. Work from *-* until all 4 squares have been worked together – finish with 1 double crochet around the last corner.
When the strips have been completed, work them together in width in the same way.
EDGE:
Use chocolate brown and crochet needle size 4.5 mm.
Start by fastening the strand with 1 slip stitch in 1st corner and then work as follows: 3 chain stitches, 1 treble crochet, 3 chain stitches and 2 treble crochets around this corner. * Work 1 treble crochet in each double crochet as far as the seam between the next 2 squares, work 1 treble crochet around both corners *, work from *-* to the next corner of this side of the blanket.
Around the 2nd corner work 2 treble crochets, 3 chain stitches and 2 treble crochets. Work from *-* to the next corner on this side of the blanket.
Around the 3rd corner work 2 treble crochets, 3 chain stitches and 2 treble crochets. Work from *-* to the next corner on this side of the blanket.
Around the 4th corner work 2 treble crochets, 3 chain stitches and 2 treble crochets. Work from *-* to the last corner on the blanket and work 1 slip stitch in the 3rd chain stitch at the beginning of the round. Cut and fasten the strand.

Wie muß ich das Diagramm in der 4. und 5. Runde lesen? Ich würde erst eine Runde Luftmaschenbögen mit den Halbstäbchen machen, danach die festen Maschen um die Luftmaschenbögen und zuletzt die festen Maschen rundherum. Dann wären es aber 3 Runden! Wo liegt der Fehler? Vielen Dank!

Liebe Katrin, 4. Runde beginnt mit 1 Luftmasche, 6 feste Maschen um den Luftmaschenbogen und endet mit 1 Halbstäbchen in die Doppelstäbchengruppe der 3. Runde, 1 Kettmasche in die 1. Luftmasche der Runde. 5. Runde beginnt mit 1 Lufmasche, 1 feste Masche in jede Masche und endet mit 1 Kettmasche in die Luftmasche. Viel Spaß beim häkeln!
07.06.2022 kl. 09:45I starten af arbejdet efter omgang 2 med de ialt 36 stangmasker, begynder det at bølge, som om der er for mange masker. Har prøvet med 5 luftmasker i starten i stedet for de 4, har også prøvet i starten at starte med en magisk ring. Det virker heller ikke rigtigt. Hækler med garn og pindstørrelse som vist i opskriften. Har hæklet en prøve med bomuldsgarn med en pind 3, også samme resultat. Hvad gør jeg galt?

Hei Susan. Husk å overholde heklefastheten. Hekler du for løst kan det fort bølge seg. Om du overholder heklefastheten og fortsetter å hekle vil du se at sirkelen retter seg opp. Dersom du har heklet en rute ferdig og fremdeles syns at den bølger seg, kan du prøve å dampe den lett for å se om det blir bedre. mvh DROPS design
27.01.2021 kl. 12:09Hi. Tried again if you try and print no diagram. Please could you assist?

Dear Gaylyn, usually there is no problem when printing the diagram, so I believe it's not a webpage error. You should try to print it with another browser.
