Inspired by stained glass windows, the Craftsman Afghan combines different techniques to achieve its geometric design. Growing outwards from the central panel of chevron arrows, each additional piece is simply picked up and knit from existing panels. Finally, the checkerboard corners are mitered squares which make for a seamless construction. Knit in garter stitch with Palette held doubled on larger needles makes the Craftsman Afghan a fun and fast project with impressive results.
