I got 3 huge skeins of brown (and used all of two and into the third) 1 large skein of cream, and 3 small skeins of the red (claret). I also used a Size J hook instead of the recommended Size K. It may be slightly bigger than their listed approximate finished size, but I liked the feel of the material using that hook.<br /><br />Wouldn't that be a riot for us to having matching handmade afghans!? It would be that dress from middle school all over again. ;-) (It's page 10 called Herb Garden.)Mindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15200088593233052818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8426897612427380392.post-49277840641183319502012-01-27T14:08:57.648-06:002012-01-27T14:08:57.648-06:00This is great!
