Timeless and elegant pattern! The Renaissance Beauty Throw by Carol Alexander is made in beautiful lacy squares. If you love instant gratification and dislike stitching lots of pieces together at the end, you'll love how this throw in made by joining the squares as you go! The finished throw measures 52” x 65”.

I chose Red Heart's “Renaissance Beauty Throw” pattern for this yarn (ended up being a good choice; it's such an open design that I am getting 10 squares per skein) and added a row of double crochet (the original pattern was a little too open for me) and loops for a flat-braid join.  I am such a sucker for instant gratification that I really prefer to join my squares as I work.

I added a row of double crochet to each square (after the original pattern ends) and then loops for a Priscilla Hewitt’s flat-braid join (http://priscillascrochet.net/free%20patterns/Afghan%20Edg…) to connect the squares. I like to join as I go! (Source)
