I love the Fields and Furrows Afghan. It is the perfect crochet project: You can sit for hours and crochet along without worry of changing color. It is designed specifically for Cake Style Yarn and the texture hides the color changes. All you have to do is crochet along. Fire up the Netflix or your favorite TV show and you are ready to go! Here is what you will need: - About 1900 yards worsted weight yarn (5 Caron Cakes or other cake style yarn). - US H8/5mm crochet hook or a size hook appropriate for your yarn - Tapestry needle and scissors

On the Bias Rectangular Afghan
VIDEO TUTORIAL AVAILABLE Beginners and seasoned crocheters alike will love that the On the Bias Rectangular Afghan pattern uses simple crochet stitch pattern repeats to create the textured design, making it perfect for those days when you need to sit, crochet and decompress. If working on the bias (or corner-to-corner as it's more widely known) is intimidating, no worries! I've created a video tutorial to help. Pair this crochet blanket pattern with Lion Brand Yarns Mandala or Wool Ease Cakes, self-striping yarns, and all of the colorwork is done for you making this a perfect crochet project for binge watching your favorite TV show. And I don't know about you, but my favorite part of self-striping yarns is that I'm not left with a bunch of ends to weave in!
Harvest Fields Throw Crochet Pattern
This Harvest Fields Throw is a gorgeous textured marvel! Worked in rounds and measuring approx. 54” wide, it is the perfect lapghan size and looks beautiful draped over a chair or couch. If worked in a lighter weight yarn, this would also make a beautiful baby blanket for a sweet little girl.
Basic C2c Chunky Afghan
"This crochet pattern is for a basic, chunky, beautifully textured corner to corner afghan. Worked in two strands of worsted weight yarn (or one strand of chunky weight yarn), this cozy afghan works up fairly quickly. My afghan is worked in a solid color, but you could use some Caron Cakes yarn (or similar) for an easy, colorful afghan, or change colors as you see fit. For my blanket, I used about 8.33 (1/3) Skeins of Hobby Lobby's I Love This Yarn in the Ivory colorway (two strands held together). In it's place, you could use one strand of chunky/bulky (#5) yarn. Take a gauge. If you don't mind a slight difference in measurements, gauge isn't essential. You could even go up a hook size, and use super bulky yarn for a larger blanket. This afghan took me just over 11 hours to work up."
