Method of making a single crocheted work-piece with an incorporated meandering pattern

A method of fabricating a single crocheted work-piece incorporating a meandering pattern and comprising the steps of:

• determining the size and shape of the work-piece;
• determining the gauge for the work-piece by constructing a sample piece using the yarn, crochet hook and basic stitch to be used in the fabrication of the work-piece;
• making a grid of the same shape as the work-piece;
• dividing the grid into uniform squares wherein each square represents a specific area determined using the size and the gauge;
• placing the meandering pattern into the grid in the form of a single continuous line that crosses each of the squares and encloses an area designated the balloon;
• compressing the balloon into a single pattern line that is superimposed on the cross-lines of the grid;
• using the gauge to determine the number of stitch units to be placed in each square;
• placing notations for the required stitch units and stitch combinations on the pattern line;
• fabricating a first round of the work-piece that incorporates every part of the pattern, said fabrication being completed in two stages, a row 1A, the going out, and a row 1B, the return, using the numbers of the stitch units and stitch combinations designated in the grid, ending the round, and cutting the yarn;
• attaching another yarn and fabricating a second round by following around the pattern line and completely encircling the first round, ending with a slip stitch and cutting the yarn;
• repeating the second round a sufficient number of times until the work-piece has attained the desired size;
• and
• connecting all inside seams;
• whereby the completed work-piece contains a meandering pattern and there is no right or wrong side to the work-piece, no top or bottom, and the initial row 1A is not visible.
