From the description: Nancy’s determination to master the stitches in this pattern paid off when she received the top honor for this excellent piece of work.

Materials: Knitting worsted, 17 4-oz. skeins. Aluminum crochet hooks sizes I and J.

Gauge:

• 19 sts = 5” / 12.5cm in single crochet (US) using I/9 (5.5mm) hook
• 1 panel = 4” / 10cm
• 24 rows = 5” / 12.5cm using I/9 (5.5mm) hook

All in creamy white, worked all in one piece, this handsome afghan adapts the raised pattern panels of Aran knits to crochet. Clusters, popcorns, and other stitches in relief form the repeat design. Pillows of many sizes can be made from the pattern.
