I had been looking for a throw blanket to go on the couch in our front room for some time and couldn't find something that had just the right colors, so I decided to make one instead. These are the colors I choose. I ended up not using as many balls of yarn as indicated on the pattern (link above).
Well, suffice it to say that {for me} it took longer than 5 1/2 hours to make this afghan. I usually have a lot of interruptions while I am crocheting/knitting so that is to be expected.

I like the fact that you use all 3 strands of yarn at the same time, giving it the multi-colored look. You crochet with hook size Q-19. I had to go buy one because I had never used this large of a hook, but I liked using it because it was easier to hold and made the work go by much faster.
Here is the finished room. I was trying to blend the colors in the rug, chairs, candles, and couch. I think I achieved it. What do you think? Is this a project that would interest you? If you have made this pattern or decide to make it in the future, please e-mail me so I can provide a link to your blog.
