Hello,
I finished this afghan a few weeks ago. It measure approximately 50" x 70". There are 70 crochet blocks.
I really like how it turned out but I should have use softer yarns. You can get this pattern from here.
For those who wondering, it took me about 10 days to make this. I used 9 skeins Red Heart super saver, 7 skeins Aron, 1 skein Tea leaf , and 1 skein light pink plus a little Shocking pink scarp yarn for the center.
Update on this afghan, this is going to be a big one. I wanted it at least 90" x 90" and I needed about 250 crochet blocks. Yike!
I am almost done. I need 50 more crochet blocks but ran out of yarns. Luckily, yesterday I received Joann Fabric flyer and there were five 50% off coupons that I can use. Don't you just love that!
Well, that it for now, until next time....
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

I added a row of half double crochet around the border. It looks like I weaved ribbon around the afghan.

Wow, Helen! You work fast! These are beautiful! Are they for you or for sale?
Gorgeous. I could never finish something that big in a mere 10 days. It would take me months.
Good timing on those coupons
Sooo pretty as always.

I can sort of knit but I have been dying to learn how to crochet. Might try this sometime :) now that I have a munchkin at home.
