Way-More-Than-Four-Hour-Afghan
Adapted from THIS pattern.

Afghan is worked with a P-hook, THREE strands held together, and absolute crap load of worsted weight acrylic.

(I used two red, one gray.)


Ch 84. (Or however wide you like your blankies. I’m 5’10” and like to be swallowed in afghan-osity. You can do 54, 64, 74, 84, 1204…)

Row 1 Sc and dc in 2nd ch from hook, *skip 1 ch, sc and dc in next ch; rep from * across. Ch 1, turn.

Row 2 Sc and dc in first dc, *skip next sc, sc and dc in next dc; rep from * across, skip last sc. Rep row 2 until afghan is about five feet long, do not fasten off. Ch 1, turn.

TRIM: Sc in each dc and dc in each sc along the top, hdc and sc in corner, for side*sc TWO times in each dc scallop and put TWO dc in each valley* (unless this is too much and super-waffly for you–drop from TWO to ONE one or both) to next corner, working an extra 2 sc at last st, sc evenly across bottom, hdc and dc in corner, then work along side edge as before, put an extra 2 sc at last st, join with slip slip st, fasten off and call the doctor for the hernia it will give you to lift this sucker onto the bed.


Toasty-oasty!
