*MDC – Mayhem & Majesty

Pattern Notes

This pattern is worked from the bottom up and turned for each new row.
Left-hand hook holders follow this pattern as written, noting that the odd rows (‘right side’ [RS] ) are actually the ‘wrong side’ [WS] for you. This means when you crochet even rows, you will be able to read the words. If you consult the graph, remember to read right to left on odd rows & left to right on even rows.
A graph for this pattern can be found in a separate file.

Pattern Notes

Finished size using a 5.5mm hook and worsted weight yarn is 48 by 72 inches (122 by 183 cm). This blanket is set up to be resizable, so you can easily make a smaller version by doing less panels of cups and/or fewer cup across the width. Or by using a lighter weight yarn and smaller hook.
Yarn amounts given below were taken using a 5.5mm and Hobby Lobby’s I Love This Yarn, which is a worsted weight yarn (with a 10% cushion added).
