Ok… So with out anymore delay… Here is your Week 4 Beatrice Ryan Designs Crochet-A-Long Free Afghan Crochet Pattern!

*Tip~ You will want the same number of 3Dc Clusters on Top/Bottom and Right/Left. Make sure you double-check this before you move to the next row.

*Tip~For the Granny Strip section you will be turning after each row and no longer working in the round.

Row 7: With non-neutral color – Join with Sl St to Second Stitch from corner (see photo below), Chain 3 (counts as Dc now and throughout) and 2 DC in same stitch,* Sk 2 stitches, 3 Dc in next stitch(3Dc Cluster)*, Repeat ** across, until you reach the last 2 stitches from the next corner(you may be short a stitch and end up with only 1 stitch before the center stitch of the corner. In this case just skip the 1 stitch), 3 Dc in center stitch of the corner, Ch 2, 3 Dc in same stitch(Corner Cluster made), Sk 2 stitches. Repeat 3Dc Clusters, Sk 2 stitches and Corner Cluster, Sk 2 stitches, around. Join to beginning Ch 3 with Sl St. Finish off.

I absolutely love to crochet!!! If a day goes by without a hook in my hand… I feel sort of lost! So many of us talk about all our projects we are working on and how many we have stashed away… I am the Queen of that!! I thought I would take a moment to see if I could check some of those off my list this weekend… And the big answer was NO… I just decided to add more to my list…. Love to Crochet!!!

The beginnings of my newest,,, Bright Sunburst Granny Afghan…

All the centers complete and most of the Third rounds are done…

The final size of the Sunburst Granny Block…

So why start another Afghan while working on our CAL??? Yep that’s what I said to myself… I am donating this Beautiful Bright Sunburst Granny Afghan to a Fundraiser… It has to be done in just a couple of weeks… So I had to get busy!!!

If you remember from last year… I made a Beautiful Cream and Scrap Sunburst Granny… I loved it so much that I thought I would make another!!! This pattern is from Priscillas Crochet… You can Click Here to get her Free Pattern!!

Beautiful Cream and Scrap Sunburst Granny from Last Year….
