📌 Before You Begin

💡

Wall hanging is worked in five separate geometric panels that are seamed together

Each panel uses different stitch patterns and colors for visual interest

💡

Work panels flat in turned rows unless otherwise specified

💡

Carry yarn loosely when changing colors to maintain gauge

💡

All chains at beginning of rows count as stitches

✂️ Finishing

Weave in all remaining ends securely on wrong side. Steam block entire piece gently to set stitches and ensure hanging lies flat. Trim any excess yarn tails. Insert dowel through top pocket and adjust cord length as desired for wall placement. For added stability, you may tack bottom corners to wall with small nails or adhesive strips. The geometric design creates visual interest through contrasting colors and stitch textures.

🧺 Care Instructions

Hand wash gently in cool water with mild detergent if needed. Lay flat to dry on clean towel, reshaping to measurements. Do not wring or twist. Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading. Dust occasionally with soft cloth or lint roller. Remove from wall and store flat if needed for extended periods.

Questions About This Pattern

Absolutely — just match the weight (Worsted). You'll need about approximately 500 yards total, so make sure your substitute has enough meterage. Acrylic is budget-friendly and machine-washable; wool gives better stitch definition and drape.
This intermediate pattern assumes you're comfortable with basic stitches. You'll use ch, sc, hdc, dc and a few more (see the Abbreviations section above). If increases and decreases are new to you, a quick 10-minute tutorial on YouTube before you start will make the pattern much smoother.
Usually it's the joining or finishing — where individual sections meet and need to align. Read through the entire pattern once before you start so there are no surprises. Use stitch markers generously to track your place, especially in rounds. If a section looks wrong, count your stitches before proceeding — catching an error early saves a lot of frogging later.
For this pattern, gauge is "14 sc x 16 rows = 4 inches in single crochet". For decorative or non-fitted items it's less critical, but matching gauge ensures you use the right amount of yarn and get the proportions the pattern intends. If your swatch is too small (too many stitches/inch), go up a hook size. Too large — go down.
Hand wash gently in cool water with mild detergent if needed. Lay flat to dry on clean towel, reshaping to measurements. Do not wring or twist. Keep out of direct sunlight to prevent color fading. Dust occasionally with soft cloth or lint roller. Remove from wall and store flat if needed for extended periods. A general rule: when unsure about the yarn, hand wash in cool water with a drop of gentle detergent, squeeze (don't wring), and block flat to dry. This is safe for almost every fiber.
Each section builds on the last, so yes — follow them in order. That said, some finishing sections (like embellishments or optional edging) can be skipped if you prefer a simpler look. Read through all sections before starting so you understand how the pieces fit together and can plan your yarn usage across sections.
