The Color Sequence Pattern

You’ll work through a repeating color cycle of copper, green, burgundy, and gold, staying with each color for four rows. This creates those gorgeous horizontal stripes that give the piece its autumn personality and make progress feel rewarding as the colors shift.

Adding the Finishing Touches

Once your main body reaches its full size of roughly 48 by 62 inches, you’ll add an edging in green to frame everything beautifully. Work three stitches in each corner, and your afghan will be perfectly squared off and ready to enjoy.
