Comments
Rough Texture
The overall feeling of the afghan is rough (from all the single crochets.) I would definitely recommend using a larger hook than what you usually use, just to allow for more relaxed stitches. I made my blanket with 2 solid color fans- pink and green. I switched the placement of the squares so the final blanket looked like a pink rose blooming and its green leaves.
