Tinted Squares Afghan
Lion Brand® Tweed Stripes®
GAUGE: 12 half double crochet + 8 rows = 4 in. (10 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.

| Tinted Squares Afghan Reviewed by Lorraine Willis on 2013-03-02 |
 |
| This should not be called an Afghan. It is a lap blanket. Be sure to look at the measurements. Very small. If using yarn that has to be dye matched, and you really want an Afghan size, buy extra yarn in the same dye lot at the time of your initial purchase.
