    Texture and Bright Colors

    I had tons of this yarn left after I made a plastic canvas Rubik's Cube so I figured out how to crochet well enough to make this afghan for my grandson's first birthday. My DIL tells me he's into bright colors and texture now, so this should be perfect for him. I still have yarn left so I'm making him some toys to match.

    Hi, Cathy, is that the mile a minute stitch? Looks great, I've used it for scarves, never thougt of it as a stash buster, way to go! Landon, there is a tutorial on Youtube for it if that's what it is. Caro
