This throw has been on the needles for far longer than I really want to think about.  If I had realized how long this would take before I started I doubt I would have bothered but I have learnt a lot in the process of completing this project.  But the pattern is definitely being filed under the "never to be attempted again" category.

Each row is 225 stitches long, each pattern repeat is 16 stitches by 42 rows.  Its knitted in Jaeger Monte Cristo 4 ply Crepe which is a cotton/acrylic mix and it is based on a pattern by Martin Storey published in Lets Knit magazine Dec 2010.
