Free Crochet Pattern: Fireside Afghan – 12 Weeks of Gifting

We’re featuring a new free pattern every Tuesday for 12 weeks. This week’s free crochet pattern is the Fireside Afghan and Pillow.

Fall is here, which means we are already thinking about our “To Make” lists for holiday gifting! What better way to express one’s creativity and generosity than with a handmade gift for the ones we love?

To kick off our new site, (and to get you started with your holiday makes!), we are launching our new holiday tradition: the 12 Weeks of Gifting, where we release a brand new free pattern every Tuesday for 12 weeks, counting down the days to mid December.

We’ll be featuring all sorts of projects during the 12 Weeks of Gifting – from cozy throws to gorgeous cowls – a little something for everyone on your list!  

12 Weeks of Gifting—Week 2:
Fireside Afghan

This week we have the Fireside Afghan and Pillow pattern, a fantastic buffalo plaid blanket set that is the perfect addition to your holiday home. Made in our best value yarn Brava Sport, a 100% premium acrylic yarn that comes in a whole rainbow of colors.

Deceptively simple and fun to make, the Fireside Afghan blanket and pillow pattern uses the star stitch and three different shades of color to produce a gingham pattern. Each side is finished with a four-row black border.
