Green Afghan

On the knitting needles:

Pattern:

Overall design by the Cactus.  Two strips in Frosty Green and two strips in Aran (white), each 90 stitches wide- two selvage stitches (slip stitch on start of row), 22 stitches each bamboo stitch and stockingette, switched every 44 rows, creating squaress of bamboo & stockingette.  Each strip continued for one skein of yarn.  I plan to learn some sort of crochet to do an edge in Spruce.

 

Yarn:

Red Heart Super Saver 100% acrylic that a co-worker gave me when she was cleaning her apartment.

 

Gauge:

4.5 stitches per inch on #9 needles

 

Time:

Estimated 65 hours.  This is my "fill in the spaces" project, so who knows when it will ever be done.

 

More Stuff on the Web:
