Moss Stitch Afghan

​

A few days ago I posted the bedspread crochet project I am working on. I also mentioned an afghan I started (first) in the same stitch. 

Well, I finally got the afghan done! (October is a busy month!) 

I'm really so happy with how it looks like a braided rug or woven blanket. The moss stitch may be a bit slow, but the end result is worth it! 

I did not make this a standard size. I chained as long as I wanted it and worked the stripes vertically until it was wide enough. It is a bit narrow, but extra long! 

My daughter nicknamed the pattern "Motion Sickness" because the stripes move a bit if you stare too long. 

Made with a J hook and  Red Heart Super Saver yarn in these colors: 

Charcoal
Soft Navy
Delft Blue
Royal Blue
White
Heather Grey
Orchid

(also a blue and a tan that I don't know the names of because they were in my basket without wrappers.)
