our pinwheel afghan throw...it measures 40 inches x 54 inches...but as you know hand crocheted items will stretch just a little so could measure differently after some use.....there are 24 large pinwheels and 15 small squares...making a very nice sized throw....this can be machine washed but we recommend laying flat to dry....if you have any more questions feel free to ask...

 Decided to make a afghan/throw/blanket for Valentines Day.  I chose the criss cross stitch and was off....for Valentines I chose the white, rose petal, and shocking pink rose.  This was a fairly easy one for me and I enjoyed just watching TV and working it up.  Funny, when I was done I told hubby everyone of these stitches I put into this.  It measures about 50"x60" and as everyone knows crocheting stretches. We always recommend washing on cold and laying flat to dry.  We have found that the dryer causes the yarn to get fuzzies...so laying flat to air dry the yarn stays the same.  Will be pretty in any room.  Now, on sell in our Etsy shop...at www.etsy.com/shop/rustycupboard....
