**This is another traditional afghan, easy stitching, great take along project!
Size:
Approx 55 x 65
Material List:
3000-4000 yds total of worsted weight yarn in 6 colors
I used 2(370 yd) skeins each of Red Heart with Love in the following colors:
- A-White
- B-Stone
- C-Sweet Pink
- D-Light Gray
- E-Cameo
- F-Pewter
*If using other colors, the idea is that they will create a slightly gradient effect throughout the rows. You can use less color combinations, but the effects with turn out differently than the design is intended.
Hook – K or size needed for gauge
Scissors and Yarn needle
Gauge:
Why do a gauge swatch? By making a quick gauge swatch, your project will be closer to the intended size of the design.
3″ x 3″ = 10 blsc x 10 rows *Back Loop Single Crochet. (this has been corrected from the original)
