From the description: This pretty afghan throw uses puff stitches to create an attractively textured Tunisian fabric. The throw is finished with a fringe.

Gauge:

  • 9sts to 2” / 5cm
  • 18 rows to 4.75” / 12cm

Pattern specifies a size G/6 (4.50mm) crochet hook and a size H/8 (5.5mm) afghan hook - the afghan hook size is a typo (H/8 = 5.00mm), so make a swatch to ensure you achieve the right gauge.
