Easy Crochet Project with Blue and White Cotton Yarn

You’ll Need:

70g of 100% cotton yarn of blue color (200m/100g);

30g of the same yarn, but white color;

Crochet hook 3.5.

Instructions

Start with a crown using blue yarn.

Make 4 chain stitches and circle them in a ring by means of a slip stitch. Then, work according to the scheme.

Colors Alternation

Pattern: * 2 rows of blue yarn, 1 row of white yarn*; repeat from * to * five times, then make 2 rows with blue yarn.

Row Instructions

1^st Row: 3 chain stitches increase, 11 double crochets. Visually, divide your work into 12 equal parts of stitches in the 1^st row;

2^nd Row: 3 chain stitches increase, 1 double crochet in the same base, 1 double crochet, * 2 double crochets in one base stitch*; repeat from * to * eleven times;

3^rd Row: 3 chain stitches increase, 1 double crochet in the same base, 1 double crochet, * 2 double crochets, 2 double crochets in one base stitch*; repeat from * to * eleven times;

4^th Row: 3 chain stitches increase, 1 double crochet, 1 double crochet, 2 double crochets in one base stitch, * 2 double crochets, 2 double crochets in one base stitch*; repeat from * to * eleven times;

5^th Row: 3 chain stitches increase, 2 double crochets in one base stitch, 3 double crochets, * 2 double crochets in one base stitch, 3 double crochets*; repeat from * to * eleven times;

6^th Row: 3 chain stitches increase, 2 double crochets, 2 double crochets in one base stitch, 2 double crochets, * 2 double crochets, 2 double crochets in one base stitch, 2 double crochets*; repeat from * to * eleven times.

Continue work in the same manner, displacing the increase to 1 double crochet. Crochet until the diameter reaches 20 cm (about 11 rows), then make 3 rows without increases.

To make your work more narrow, decrease 12 stitches in every row, beginning from the next row. Make 3 such rows, followed by 1 row of double crochets and 2 rows of double crochets without decreases.
