This is an easy crocheted afghan ideal for a little boy. It is made in 3 strips going across which helps making color changes easier and least freq. Worked in single crochet thru-out, then double crochet for edging. Colored charts are included so easy to follow, no symbols.

Gauge is not important. This is a great size afghan

All charts are 45 sts by 45 rows- you will be putting 3 charts together to make a strip so 45 sts by 135 rows
