Simple Afghan

Here is a crocheted blanket I'd like to share with you...

 

It was very simple to do.  This is my second crocheted project so it was very easy.  

  

I didn't follow a pattern, but if you can chain and single crochet then you can make this blanket in just a few nights in front of the tv.  

 

If you'd like to give it a try here are my "how to" instructions:

You will need:

18 balls of Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick yarn (I used "Oatmeal")
Q crochet hook

My finished blanket (not including the fringe) measures 53" x 57"

Using two strands together, chain 65 plus 1 and turn.  Single crochet into each chain until you reach the end of the row (65) then chain 1 and turn.  Keep going in this manner until desired width.  I didn't count the number of rows I crocheted...I just kept going until I was almost out of yarn, but still had enough yarn left to add a fringe to the ends.  The blanket looks good with or without the fringe.  

 

 

It is a very quick blanket to "whip up"  and by using two strands of yarn it makes this blanket very heavy and very warm! 

 

If you are a beginner crocheter like me then give it a try.  It's quick and easy and a lot of fun to do!  

 

Thanks for stopping by!

  3. Perhaps if you made your font darker and larger it would show up against the wall paper you have chosen.

  7. Custom Flap Boxes confines various sorts, classifications, and material decisions are the most persuasive kind of wrapping cases present on the lookout. Gems things are exceptionally famous in view of their ordinariness and appeal among ladies, everything being equal. Without adornments items no look is finished. This is the reason utilizing the superior nature of these custom packs can end up being very imperative for adornments producers.
