This is a crochet pattern with video tutorial showing how to crochet the Through the Window Afghan – a fun afghan that uses the inset mosaic crochet technique. Don’t let it scare you! It’s comprised of simple single crochet stitches, chains and easy double crochets. 11 sizes included.

Want to make a matching piece?

This Through the Window Afghan Square can be used to make throw pillows, a rug, and so much more.

This Through the Window Hand Towel can be used as such, or as a mat on the coffee table next to your afghan.

This Through the Window Wreath would be the perfect decor piece over top of your entryway, mantel or bed, or on your front door.

Prefer a Super Chunky version? Same 11 sizes available, and super chunky means it’ll work up quicker.
