Important information’s for the pattern:
- The beginning chain stitch is not counted as a stitch.
- Knowledge of tapestry crochet is a must as it is not explained.
- Knowledge about how to carry colours is a must, as I do not explain where I carried the yarn and where I started a new ball for the same colour.
- The even rows are back rows.
- Each row consists of 40 stitches, all single crochet.

Fringes:
With black yarn (or any other desired colour), cut 80 strands approximately 12 cm long and attach them to each stitch at the top and bottom. To do this, simply use the crochet hook to pull the yarn through the stitch.
Cut the fringes to a similar length.
Finish off the piece, weave in all loose ends, and don't forget to block your piece at the end. 😊
