benson1 - you have to click the Download Now button to the right of the photo above.  The system will ask you to log in (or create an account), then you can download the pattern in PDF format.

benson1, there is a pretty nice video demonstrating the Wattle Stitch here:

Wow, I'm so excited about the project.  I had promised my self that every project I start from now on would have to present one new challenge/stitch and lo and behold the Afghan Project.  I read about it yesterday, went out and bought the yarn and am almost finiished the "Crochet Me" pattern.  It is really cute.

I've never posted to this blog before, but I'm really interested in joining in the Chain Reaction Afghan Project, and wanted to know if I can use any color combination with the square patterns you give us, or do we have to use the colors listed in each pattern?

Thanks

Paulette
