Wonderful!

I'll have to learn that stitch - I really love how it turned out! I'm sure he'll think of you everytime he cuddles up to it!!!

Thanks for sharing! i also made a boyfriend afghan out of the dark country blue and gray heather colors, using a J hook for the whole thing.

 

What size hook did you use? my guess is H.

 

F, actually.

 

I love the basketweave stitch. You're right that it takes a lot of yarn, but it should be really warm and snuggly. I have never thought about doing it in more than one color. It makes for an interesting pattern in the stripe. Did you edge it? If so, how?

 

No, I didn't edge it. Originally I wanted to edge it in green (it's my favorite color), but I didn't like how it looked so I pulled it out.

 

Wonderful!

It's a very easy stitch. I found it in a really great book called "Encyclopedia of Crochet."
