Crochet Afghan Patterns Make Great Gifts by Charles Cox
Crochet afghan cover patterns are without a doubt one of most popular crochet projects enjoyed by both beginners and advanced crocheters alike. A Crocheted Afghan cover is most certainly a great giveaway for family and friends. It can not only serve as a wrap or shawl, it can also provide an extra blanket on chilly nights. The term afghan was derived from the textiles that are produced in Afghanistan because they were comparable to the shawls and wraps used in the region.
Crocheted afghan covers are very versatile and can be used in various ways. For instance, there are countless Crochet Patterns out there for afghan blanket covers. An afghan blanket can either be used as a mattress cover for the top of the bed, or as a comforter, and even as a bedspread. Obviously, selecting the appropriate pattern determines the function of the intended project in the end.
Afghans make great gifts during birthdays and holidays, as a personal touch can be added when different motifs are incorporated into the design. Christmas afghans are very suitable for cold winter nights while personalized baby afghan blankets can become family heirlooms.
Complimentary Crochet Afghan Patterns
Free crochet afghan patterns are a great way to put together a beautiful afghan for giveaways and to build up a personal pattern library. Crochet afghan patterns can either be very simple or complex depending on the preference of the crocheter.
A crocheter may opt to select a simple crochet afghan pattern that makes use of numerous granny squares, which are joined to form an entire blanket. On the other hand, complex crochet afghan patterns may consist of geometric shapes that feature advanced crochet stitches.
Various resources like Craft Books, crocheting magazines and crafting websites offer complimentary crochet afghan patterns. These patterns generally provide complete instructions starting from what type of yarn and hook should be used for the project. In most cases, a crochet pattern may also include helpful tips on the differences between yarns.
Crochet afghan patterns can also serve as an inspiration for a crocheter to create a unique design of their very own. Keep in mind that patterns can always be adapted to suit the purpose of the project. Crocheters shouldn't restrict themselves strictly to the instructions of the pattern don't be afraid to branch out and be creative at times. It is always important to exercise some personal judgment, which will help enhance the appearance of the project.

Many times, the creation of an afghan from crochet patterns is the start of a wonderful tradition that a mother passes on to their daughters. A free crochet pattern for an afghan cover is not only a great place to start, it is also very enjoyable. A mother and daughter can learn how to crochet at the same time by following a simple afghan crochet pattern. Once completed the finished product can be given away to family and friends.
Mothers and especially grandmothers always appreciate a handcrafted afghan cover created from a free crochet pattern by a beloved family member. It just means much more to them and has a personal touch. When selecting a pattern for the afghan be sure to choose a pattern and color scheme that would suit their personality and fit into the scheme of their home.

Why is my afghan square so long?
I'm using the yarn weight and hook size that the pattern recommends, but it's way taller than it is wide. What's going on?
As far as the length is concerned it is probably because you are not going around the work and have just did your chain so much and instead of going around you have made a row on top of a row. Check it out and pull it down to where you have the square and then do the chain and do not turn the work to go backward on the row you just made with the crocheting, go forward.
