A beautiful crochet afghan, which can be done in one, two or even more colors, this pattern with alternate squares creates the impression of a chess board. The texture seems quite dense and more colors tend to create more playfulness. This attractive Baby Blue Afghan by Esther Leavitt is an easy repeat pattern that produces a beautifully textured blanket. This very beautiful blanket is an intermediate skill level.
