Double Sided Afghan

"This double sided crochet blanket will have them hootin' and hollerin' about it's beauty. This is the perfect crochet baby blanket pattern! One side of the stitch looks oval shaped, while the other side has more of a starburst pattern to it. It reminds me of X's and O's. So much texture! Oh and if you're looking for a warm afghan for those cold winter nights, look no further. Yup! It's a yarn eater, but it's worth it to have such a beautiful blanket, am I right!?  Sizes for Crib to King included as well as lots of pictures to help you. ------------------------------------------------------------------ For this project you'll need: HOOK: 5 mm hook or size H hook for the US and a 6 mm \ J hook to make the beginning chain.
