I (heart) Fall afghan

Full steam ahead on finishing up those lingering incomplete crochet projects! First up (and not surprisingly, the most recently started) scraps afghan:

I made this blanket using this pattern, and I think it turned out really well! I skipped the step of putting the fringe on the ends. This was partly out of laziness, partly out of the fact that I have a cat, and if you have cats you know fringe doesn't last long!

I started this blanket after making this basket for my mother's day. Of course I forgot to take any photos of the basket! Anywho, I wanted to use up the left over yarn...honestly I could probably get another one of these out of the yarn I still have left in the colors in the hearts!

Here's what I used:

Hook: Size G

Main Color: Red Heart Super Saver in Aran, roughly 4 and half skeins
Other colors, didn't use probably even half a skein of any of them:
I Love This Yarn in Cream
I Love This Yarn in Yellow
I Love This Yarn in Sungold
Red Heart Super Saver in Pumpkin
I Love This Yarn in Orange
Red Heart Super Saver in Cherry Red
Red Heart Super Saver in Burgandy

As I still have so much yarn left I may make some fall heart scarves. The pattern works up really quickly and each row is different so you don't get bored, which is nice!
