Mudpie: Thank you for finding that link. I was going to add that link to my earlier post, but I couldn't find it among all the links I have. I have serious PAS. :lol


Addicatedtoyarn: The link Mudpie provides has the most popular (I think) pattern for round afghans.

:cheer I recommend the Sewonfire version.
It has good increasing so the afghan sits nice and flat.

The increase on this are done on two rows, then one row without, this is why I did three rows of each colour, so I could keep track of the increases.

If you increase too much, the afghan gets wavy on the edge but if you dont do enough, it bulges in the middle.
This pattern seems to be just right.
I dont do the start the same now, I have adapted it a little and because I dont actually follow the pattern any more, as long as I have the right number of stitches, I dont mind what I do in the centre.
Makes them all a little more individual.
Mind you, when the colours are very different, they look individual too.

The Rainbow one is the first one I did and I cant remember which pattern I used then because I made it over a year ago.
I hope you realise you will become adicted to this pattern.
Have fun.
