Worked holding 3 strands together, flowers are crocheted separately and sewn on. Very pretty and cushy.

The pretty three-dimensional buds on this afghan conjure up images of richly colored roses on a delicate trellis. Super-quick to make, the flowery throw is worked in double crochet stitches while holding three strands of yarn together. An edging of green and rose completes the lovely look.
