Thanks for posting this. I thought I had seen and tried just about all afghan designs, but this one is new and the part about it being good for when I am watching tv and such and not having to count too many stitches or look up directions is great for me.

Wow! This IS an easy pattern, and works up beautifully, Thanks so much- I'm going to try it on a scarflette!

This is my favorite stitch. It is so easy I even do it in the dentist's chair.
