SIZE

Size of the tapestry depends entirely on your gauge and uses yarn.

I knitted on size US 4 needles and Drops Lima yarn.
My gauge was 19 x 22

After wet blocking hanging vertically (so tapestry was stretched a little in tall) the size was:
23 x 45 cm / 9 x 17”

COLORS:

Color 1– 1 skein;
Color 2 – 1 skein;

Designate your two colors as Color A and Color B. There is no RS or WS to your work, as it is reversible.

KNITTING

HOW TO DOUBLE KNIT
Double knitting is knitting a fabric with two stockinette sides simultaneously. On each row you are working alternating stitches from each side, knitting one and purling the other.

STICH GLOSSARY

P = Purl
K = Knit
Rnd(s) = Round(s)
Rem =Remain(ing)
st(s) = Stitch(es)
BO=Bind Off

MATERIALS:
CIRCULAR NEEDLE (40 cm / 16”) SIZE 3.5 mm/US 4
Any Aran/Worsted yarn suitable for US 3.5 (4 mm)

Cast on 46 stitches with circular needle size 3.5 mm / US 4 (or any you prefer)
A cast on of 46 means there will be actually 92 loops on the needle, 46 for each side.

Knit rnds 1 to 102 of A1, A2, A3 reading rows from right to left.



As this pattern requires a lot of attention to detail, I suggest you print out the PDF and use a row tracker or highlighter, or pencil to mark which rows you have worked on.

BO and leave a long tail.

Thread the tail through a tapestry needle and thread it around what youʼre hanging it on, then through one of your BO stitches and around the piece of wood again. Keep doing this until you have completely connected it to whatever youʼre hanging it from.

CROCHET

ABBREVIATIONS

CH = chain
SC = single crochet
SK=skip

REP=repeat

RS= rigth side
WS=wrong side

Make the base chain 46+1 in Color 1.
SC into the second chain from the hook and work 1 SC into each of the next 46 chains.
At the end of the row, CH 1 and turn
See the Charts A1, A2, A3

BORDER
Crab stitch into each stitch around the entire tapestry, working 2 crab stitch into each corner.

Thread the tail through a tapestry needle and thread it around what youʼre hanging it on, the through one of your BO stitches and around the piece of wood again. Keep doing this until you have completely connected it to whatever youʼre hanging it from

Abstract Face Tee Crochet Pattern for XS/S, M/L , XL/2X , 3X/4X sizes [FREE Crochet Pattern]

Hi there, if you’re here for your first time, welcome! I just finished a new crochet tee pattern.

So as the pattern contains tapestry crochet it is considered that this is not for very very beginner, but tapestry crochet only uses basic stitches, such as single crochet, half double crochet, or double crochet. So, this technique is totally accessible to beginner crocheters

It’s a simple two panel project, but you still end up with cute summer crochet top / vest.

And to decorate the edges I recommend to do a blanket stitch edging and create the eyelashes (optional).

If you’re interested in purchasing this crochet tee pattern or any of my other patterns in a downloadable, printable PDF format, they’re available for purchase on my Payment Page below.
