Materials Needed
- Yarn: Worsted weight yarn in deep jewel tones: emerald green, sapphire blue, amethyst purple, and ruby red.
- Hook: Size H/8 (5 mm) crochet hook.
- Other Supplies: Tapestry needle, wooden dowel (24 inches).
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Foundation:
Using the emerald green yarn, make a chain (ch) of 100 stitches.
-
Row 1 (Right Side):
In the 4th chain from the hook, work a double crochet (dc). Continue to dc in each chain across. Turn your work. (You should have 97 dc stitches.)
-
Row 2:
Ch 3 (this counts as your first dc). Dc in the next 48 stitches, then change to sapphire blue yarn. Continue to dc in the remaining stitches. Turn your work.
-
Row 3:
Ch 3, then dc in each stitch across. Change to amethyst purple yarn in the last 48 stitches. Turn your work.
-
Row 4:
Ch 3, dc in the next 48 stitches, then change to ruby red yarn. Dc in the remaining stitches. Turn your work.
-
Row 5:
Ch 3, then dc in each stitch across. Turn your work.
-
Row 6:
Ch 3, dc in the next 48 stitches, then change back to emerald green yarn. Dc in the remaining stitches. Turn your work.
-
Asymmetrical Shaping:
Continue alternating colors every 2 rows. For each new row, decrease by 1 stitch at the beginning by skipping the first dc after the turning chain. Continue this process until you have 20 stitches remaining.
-
Finishing:
Fasten off your yarn and weave in all loose ends using a tapestry needle. Attach the top edge of your wall hanging to a wooden dowel using a lark's head knot for each color section. To create a dynamic look, trim the bottom edge into an asymmetrical angle.
-
Optional Tassels:
For added flair, cut 12-inch strands of each color yarn. Group them in sets of 4 and attach them as tassels along the bottom edge of your wall hanging.
Your finished wall hanging will be approximately 20 inches wide and 30 inches long at its longest point, showcasing a rich tapestry of deep jewel tones. Enjoy your new creation and the cozy charm it brings to your home!
