Twin bed size afghan 39"x74", 5sqx9sq @ 8"x8" ea ... see color choices.

4 colors @ 6 balls per color. Thanks J!

Patterns?
cable: P94 #5
heart + bobble: p134 #14
butterfly: p149 #3
color work(?):p 233 #20

Read on for J's calculation:


  • 3 colors: 15 8x8" squares per color. If we get 3 sq out of a ball, we end up needed 5 balls per color. If we get 2 sq out of a ball, we need 8 balls per color (guh).

  • 4 colors: 11.25 8x8" squares per color. If we get 3 sq out of a ball, we need 4 balls per color. If we get 2, we need ~6 balls per color.

  • # Navy 004
