In particular, I think the transition is well combined with the alternating textures of the color bands.

Triple Textures Afghan
Earlier this year I designed the Triple Textures 12″ Afghan Square for the Moogly 2020 crochet along. During the CAL, several crocheters asked if I could size grade the 12″ afghan square into a crochet blanket.
