tunisian crochet blanket
just uploaded more pics. Keep in mind this is about 2 years old, and used regularly by a teenager. But it is holding up well -

1. You worked the colors as you worked the rows!
Now this one is a departure from the other you posted with its many squares. I love afghans.

2. Stunning


...brilliant. I love it and have never seen anything like it, normally I don't care for afghans but this one could make me rethink that idea.

Cheers

4. That's beautiful, and I bet it's warm too
because of the "thermal" construction of Afghan stitch aka Tunisian crochet. I've played around with it, including the intarsia technique you used, but I've never actually made anything with it. But there's a project I've been thinking about for the past few weeks...I think maybe you inspired me to actually start it!
