Four and a half Hour Afghan
Lion Brand® Homespun®
GAUGE: 4 Sts and 3 rows = 3 in with yarn doubled in pat st BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

This was my 4th crochet project ever!
I found this afghan stitched up very easy, its a little smaller then I thought it would be, but I am tight with my stiches, will need to add extra it to make it larger.
I did saffron and olive, and it looks lovely.
Took about a week to complete, a bit more then 4.5 hours, but for my first time it is quite quick.
The only true negative I found was the cost of the yarn.
