GAUGE:

12 sts = 4 inches (10 cm); each square measures 8 inches x 8 inches. 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.

Winter Night Afghan Reviewed by F Beth Orenduff on 2008-10-01
Very quick, I did make a change in the finishing. I crochted a single chain around edge for the finishing. This is just easier for me. Would recommend this pattern. I work F/T and did 2 in the evening - took less then 3 weeks to complete.
