This lovely bedspread is made of many small octagonal motifs, joined together with lacy crocheted scallops, carrying with it the interest of the antique Swedish popcorn desi
The combination of Irish Crochet with the tufted popcorn stitch in this bedspread is very effective, especially when it is made in soft gleaming Knit-Cro-Sheen.
There are slight variations to materials and instructions between these two versions of the same pattern in different publications. Two versions are below.
In Spool Cotton Co. #85, Bedspreads, this pattern is called Dawn.
Spread this Popcorn design on an Early American bed and see how harmoniously it falls into a Colonial setting.
