Crochet Sampler Afghan
Lion Brand® Fishermen's Wool®
GAUGE: One block = 8 x 10 in. (20 x 23 cm). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION: | Cluster (CL) Keeping last loop of each dc on hook, work 3 dc in st indicated; yo and draw through all 4 loops on hook. |

| Crochet Sampler Afghan Reviewed by Sarah on 2012-05-29 |

| Loved the way this turned out! I didn't seem to have to same issue as some of the other reviewers with my cluster squares being much bigger than the other two types of squares. I wouldn't classify this as an Intermediate skill level -- it's very easy and would be great for a beginner.
