Quickie Ripple Afghan


Hi everyone!

Thought I needed another blog to keep track of my many crafting projects. I thought I would start out with this quick and easy afghan pattern that I've made many times. See my other blog for 'Adventures In Crafting'. Until then...happy hooking. =)

N-Hook Ripple Afghan
Finished Size: Approximately 46" x 66"
