Sweet Treat

LATCH HOOK RUGIMPORTANT PATTERN NOTES:This piece is created on an unstamped piece of latch hook canvas. To begin latching, measure in 1" from left edge and 1" up from bottom edge and attach your first piece of yarn. Proceed to work across and up according to the symbols on the chart provided.

DIRECTIONS:1. Latch hooking is primarily done in rows of horizontally

knotted yarn strands. Work across the canvas from left to right. When a row is completed, return to the left-hand side and start in the next row up from the one just completed. Keep your canvas straight in front of you. Do not turn or twist the canvas as you create knots. The canvas should lie on a flat surface when knotting. Do not fold the canvas.

2. Keep all knots facing the same direction. Knots tied in more than one direction will create an uneven lay to the knotted strands of the pillow and will noticeably detract from the final design appearance.

3. Each symbol on the chart represents one strand of yarn in a specific color. Refer to your color key frequently to avoid color discrepancies later.

4. When the pillow is completed, fluff up the knotted strands by running your hand across the rug in the reverse direction the strands are lying (going

against the grain of the yarn strands). Grasping the top edges of the canvas, shake the rug vigorously for a few seconds. Even all ends of knotted strands by pulling slightly on the shorter of the two ends.

FINISHING:Cut away the excess canvas, leaving a 1" border around the last row of knots on all sides of design. Fold the edges under and tack to the back of the latch canvas with heavy thread. Cover the folded canvas edges with rug binding. It is recommended that you apply a non-skid rug backing.

CLEANING:GENTLY HAND WASH OR DRY-CLEAN. Do not bleach. DO NOT MACHINE DRY OR LINE DRY. Dry flat. When dry, fluff strands with your hand and shake vigorously.
