From Simple Knits: This very easy Garter-stitch afghan is made in four strips. It is just one row after another of the knit stitch with an easy color change occurring after a color block has been formed. Lynn Albright selected a warm and comforting combination of neutral tones of Tahki Donegal Tweed Homespun, but you could choose your own combination of colors. Select bright colors for a child. Knit this afghan in alternating blocks of a sports fan’s favorite team’s colors.
