vintage kitchen sweaters pattern comes with 10 nostalgic graphics and history tidbits ♡ click to get it! if you have it and want center placement for the coca-cola graphic, start graph on the front panel on row 15 [17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27] and stitch 8 (12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 28)
♡ MY COLORWORK INSTRUCTIONS ♡
this project must be done in HDC & 1 graph square = 1 HDC
must start on an odd row
even numbered rows will be the wrong side if you are right handed
odd numbered rows will be the wrong side if you are left handed
read the graph from right to left on odd rows, and left to right on even rows
if you make the graphic into a plain tapestry, I would suggest a starting chain of 6 more than the graph to leave 3 on each side, plus one turning chain each row; I would suggest starting graph on row 3 and working two blank rows after the graph is completed
