For this afghan, I partially followed the Sampler Stripes pattern listed above, but I also changed some of the rows and used my own patterns because I had some yarns of different weights.

Yarns I used were leftovers from a variety of my early projects, and included various colorways of Lion Brand Homespun, Lion Brand Wool-ease, Red Heart Super Saver, Wintuk, Caron Simply Soft, Plymouth Encore, and probably some others I can’t think of right now.

I actually really love the way this blanket came out and out of all the crochet projects I’ve made, it’s my favorite. I pretty much think it’s proof that yarn snobbery isn’t necessary to make something nice. :)
