I purchased a beautiful afghan pattern from knotsewcute on Etsy for $3.99 today. I love it! Needs 12 skeins of Lion Fisherman Wool-Ease Thick & Quick-yay 30% off! This should be a total breeze! And it is gorgeous! This would be excellent in Cranberry, too.

SKEIN: 6oz/108yards

HOOK: white plastic N??? did I use this one?

I was excited to teach myself the border. It MAKES the afghan. I'll be putting borders on my other afghans! I think I'm doing the stitches correctly now!
