This is from an Annie's Attic Scrap Crochet Club I used to be in. I started it around Feb of '06.  I finished it on Nov 27.  It is huge. I couldn't even hold it up over my head. I asked my husband to hold it up (he's six feet tall), and it was over his head. So I measured it and it is 86" tall by 54" wide.  (No wonder it took me so long to finish it....)



Diamond in the middle:



Corner (each corner is the same):



Tina

That's very pretty Tina, I like the colors.

It looks like a square but then it finishes out as a rectangle.
Did you find this pattern online?

You did a great job on that

Thank you, Kathy. No, it wasn't an online pattern. It was through snail mail.  It's the scrap crochet club at Annie's Attic. I don't know if they still have that going on or not?

I started to do that last year but decided not to. I got the first packet
of patterns is all I have.

I will check and see if I might can find it on Ebay   I always
see a lot of these on there from time to time.

Does it come out square or rectangle? Ahhh, I see it is rectangle.

That's neat how it is the look of a square, but yet takes on the
rectangle shape. Your hubby should love this one

That is one BIGGGG blanket!  But at least your DH will be able to cover up with it!  Usually for tall guys their feet or chest don't get covered!  I bet it feels great to get that project finished!

That is a very cool (awesome, not cold) looking blanket. I'll have to look for the pattern.

Thanks everyone. It is one big WIP off my list!     The Scrap Crochet Club is here: http://www.anniesscrapcrochetclub.com/order.html

I don't know if they send out all the same patterns that I got or not. I haven't been able to find any afghan online that is similar. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Well, I can't believe it, I had it in my patterns that I got from Annie's
and didn't even know it
I only got two packs.
