I noticed that the yarn weight listed above is not correct. The yarn called for in the pattern was a sport or DK weight, which today would be equivalent to Light or Sport weight 3 (not Fine 2 as listed above). The needle size is correct and appropriate for light weight yarn. That said, it would still take a long time to make this big afghan!

I so wish that every pattern was tested by least 2 or 3 knitter before they are published . I have wasted so much time and tears from errors in patterns . I am not rating this pattern just making a statement.

Oh yes I have caught the afghan craze and it's been about 60 years now. However, I have not made one with such tiny yarn. This would definitely be a long term project but in the end it would be worth it. Not wild about the dark colors but I guess it depends on where it will be used and for whom.

Alysanne, I was thinking the same thing - very long term with that yarn! I'm sure it could be modified for thicker yarn and that in itself might be a great project for a more experienced knitter.
