“Fantastic!” – Mystery Crochet Afghan Square coming soon
I am going to be presenting clues for a Mystery 12″ Afghan Square this month in honor of National Crochet Month. First clue will be up this Tuesday, March 10, with clues to follow for the next 8 days. We can discuss and answer questions here and I will have tutorial photos. The square will be called “Fantastic!” and I am using a J hook and 4 colors of Vanna’s Choice yarn but you can use whatever yarn and hook you’d like. Please bookmark my site and come back this week for your clues!
Graphic Circles Throw – New Pattern – Free with Coupon Code
Graphic Circles Throw is ready! Easy beginner pattern with striking results. Simple bullseye circles with a twist – one single post stitch makes all the difference. A careful and minimalist join brings out the corner design, making for a modern and eye-catching throw.
Two colors keep it simple, but make it your own with color changes.
I used 6 skeins of Vanna’s Choice in Terracotta (170 yards per skein) and 5 skeins of Vanna’s Choice in Silver Heather (145 yards per skein) with an I hook but I am a loose crocheter. I recommend a J hook to achieve my gauge and size – the throw is about 52” x 68” with 48 motifs.
Join us for discussion, questions, pattern support, and brag photos on the Julie Yeager Designs board on Ravelry – all are welcome; I love to see what you come up with. Make a project page to inspire others!
I would love to inspire beginning crocheters to complete their first afghan with this pattern. I am offering the pattern free with coupon code CIRCLES for the next three months. Offer expires April 30, 2015. If you like the pattern, spread the word! Please link back to this blog and do not share the coupon code. Share the link to my blog. Thanks!

Comment on the blog – I’d love to see something to approve other than spam, lol.
The border on the left is not included with the pattern, haven’t written it up yet.
