Bev’s
Marvelous Flying Disk
Pattern/photos Copyright 2016, 2024 Beverly A. Qualheim – all rights reserved
For winter days,
rainy days, or sunny days! This flying disc isn't like any other you
might have
used!
The uniquely
designed "BEV-edge" makes it aero-dynamic and it just flies through
the air as you toss it!
Play
with this in the house on rainy or snowy days because it is soft and
safe.
Also, because you can stuff them in your purse or pocket they are
terrific for
taking to the beach, on picnics, for those 10 minute breaks families
need to
make when traveling, or play with them in the pool - yup they work when
wet
too!
MATERIALS:
100
yards of Worsted Weight

strands held together)

2

The
“Bev
Edge”
(Now, you
can change to just one color if you wish, still using 2 strands.)
The last round is a “reverse
crochet” (crab stitch). This makes for a sturdier edge and helps the
Bev’s
Frizbee soar through the air!
It’s
the same as a regular single crochet but
instead of going counter clockwise (for right handed people), you are
now going
around clockwise, so to the right. See
photo.
End
off joining with a sl st. Cut yarn, Weave
in any ends.
