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.

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