It takes nine months to make a baby, but in just 24 hours of crocheting you can make a cozy afghan to welcome that sweet child into its new world.
How you arrange those 24 hours is up to you, but you'll be thrilled with any of these 16 wraps. Designs created by Jean Leinhauser and Rita Weiss. Half use easy techniques and half are intermediate. So choose the skill level that fits your mood. Most use size 4 medium weight yarn and US H, I, J or K crochet hooks. Finished sizes range from 25" to 45" long. Shapes include: round, hexagon, square, and oblong.
