Leadlight Afghan Blanket
This blanket has been more than two years in the making. The inspiration for the design comes from a Leadlight/Stained Glass Mandala that I spotted one day. I found myself looking at this Mandala, and pondering how I could make something similar in crochet. The Leadlight Afghan is the result.

Techniques:
Basic stitches comprising mainly of Single Crochet.
Colorwork.
Surface Slip Stitch
Extended Double Treble.
The main body of the afghan is worked in the round.
I would classify this project as intermediate level. The stitches are basic, but a good understanding of colourwork would be an advantage. The challenge with this Afghan is working from multiple bobbins (96 in the final colour round) at once and in the round.
