So depending on what size your yarn is leaning toward, thinner or thicker, follow the pattern as needed, but it is by no means set in stone. I have tried this pattern with yarn that ranged from the thinner to the thicker side of worsted weight 4 ply / 10 ply AU and I have found these alterations in the pattern will help your strips stay flatter. NOTE PATTERN CHANGES SLIGHTLY HERE + TIP! Repeat what’s in between * for rest of round. The outside of the strip is worked in rounds. The center stripe is worked back and forth in rows. NOTE: This afghan is worked in strips and pattern begins with the center of the strip show in variegated colors in the display picture. Would make a nice baby blanket or pillow. But you can make the strips as long or as short as you want. This afghan is made to fit a twin / full size bed. HOOK: Any size but I used 5 mm hook or size H hook for the USĦ skeins of worsted weight yarn, 4 ply US, 10 ply AU to use for the center of Afghans (Shown in Variegated Yarn)ġ1 skeins of worsted weight yarn, 4 ply US, 10 ply AU to use to crochet around the center pieces (Shown in White)
