Southern Charmed

This little beauty has great texture.  The 'bumps' on it reminded me of some of the historic streets in Charleston, Sc.

Materials:  
*Bulky yarn (I used 2 strands of Red Heart w/Love)
*P (11.5mm) Hook
*Scissors
*Yarn Needle
*Button (I used a 1.5" coconut button)

Measures:  Approx. 35" long x 11" wide.  I crochet loosely so your measurements may be different.

Pattern:  
*Ch.24
*Row 1 *  2Dc in 3rd Ch. from hook.  Including turning chain, you will have 3Dc.  Skip the next 2 chains.  In the next chain, crochet 1Sc and 2Dc into the same chain.  Repeat this pattern until the last chain.  In the last chain, Sc only.
*Row 2 * Turn work.  Ch.2.  Do 2Dc 3rd Ch. from hook.  (the Sc space from previous round).  Crochet 1Sc and 2Dc into the Sc spaces from the previous round until you reach the last Sc.  Sc only into the previous Sc.
*Rows 3 - 43*  Repeat Row 2.   Ch.1.  Bind off, sew in ends.
*Add Button.
