Although this afghan is knit with chunky yarn on large needles, it seemed to take forever to finish. Well, it's finally done. It's for my grandson, Valentin, who is just 2 months old. It's quite large, so will be used more by his parents while cuddling him, I suppose, but as he grows bigger, my hope is that he will enjoy using it to wrap up in.
I've used this pattern and yarn many, many times (usually for prayer shawls), and I'm always pleased with the results.
