This is a very pretty baby afghan. The trend in baby things these days is for gender neutral colors, so this afghan with its rainbow stripes would be perfect. You could even combine more colors in it, maybe whatever you have on hand in your stash, and it would still look great.

@bubba41b 4519363: This is a baby afghan, so it is much smaller than a regular afghan. That's why it's only about 3ft x 3ft. A "hank" is similar to a "skein" or "ball." It just refers to a different way of winding the yarn. You will notice that the pattern provides weights in grams for each ball or hank of yarn, so it is best to use that number if you are using a substitute yarn. For example, the pattern calls for 1 hank (50g) of Berroco Touche. You will want to use 50 grams of your substitute yarn in the same yarn weight. Good luck! -- Editors of AllFreeKnitting

The Rainbow Afghan calls for a "hank" and etc. I'm unfamiliar with these terms. What do they mean? Skein? I would think an afghan would be much larger, this says it's only 31" by 37" I believe. Please explain these terms to me. Thank you. brenda
