Speed Hook Shell Afghan
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Thick & Quick®
GAUGE: 5-dc group and 1 sc = 4 in. [10 cm] in shell stitch pattern. 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.

| Speed Hook Shell Afghan Reviewed by Donna Godsey on 2009-10-06 |

| This is my FIRST afgan that I have finished, and it was sooo easy. I had read all the reviews beforehand and so I doubled it and it has taken me about a month to finish only working on it a few hours each week, but it has gone fairly quickly. The last two weeks I have actually been waiting for the store to get more of the color in that I used, so that did slow me down somewhat. Took me awhile to find the hook locally too and I love it! So quick.
