Notes

Finished to 68” x 76”. It’s huge, but made for two to share. If you do not want it so wide, you can easily adjust the number of stitches by reduces the number of pattern repeats.

I knit with two strands of yarn together. One from each color makes a great blend. This gets very large and heavy fast, make sure you are knitting with a good pair of circular needles. I was using a cheap pair on one of the other afghans and the cord broke, what a MESS!

I have knitted a dozen or so of these afghans and they are all so warm and cozy. They wash / dry easily and look great folded over the back of furniture.

This is a very soft afghan, but heavy.
