This pattern is for a soft and snuggly giraffe afghan measuring approximately 32” x 32”.

This pattern is written in American crochet terms. I’ve included instructions and a graph/chart for completing this blanket.

For this project, you should be familiar with crochet terms and abbreviations and be able to chain (ch), single crochet (sc), double crochet (dc) and work color changes (explained briefly in pattern). The pattern contains a chart for making the giraffe, so you should be VERY comfortable with multiple and frequent color changes. Project requires a size J crochet hook and worsted weight yarn.

Skill Level: Intermediate - while the chart is entirely single crochet, there are a LOT of color changes in this afghan. You should be comfortable handling and managing multiple strands of yarn for these changes.
