Modern Alchemy Afghan

Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®

GAUGE:

One 3-dc group = 1 in. (2.5 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.

NOTES:

To change color, work last st of old color to last yarn over; yarn over with new color and draw through all loops on hook. Fasten off old color.

COLOR SEQUENCE
Work 2 rows each of A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H.
