"Would love to try this but I don't see how many skeins of yarn we need. Did I miss this?"

"Link broken, does not take you to the pattern. Amazing work! Would be an heirloom gift."

"The pattern is correct. Row 7 is worked in dark green, then row 8 is worked in the light green, as used in row 6. The photo appears to show openwork, but if you look carefully, its an optical illusion, as the light green tr stitches in row 8 are worked in front of the dark green dc stitches in row 7. I hope that makes sense and helps a little"

I have been crocheting for years and yet I have never done this stitch. This would look great in an afghan. It is a great stash buster as well. I can see an afghan with all different colors. It will be beautiful and unusual. Thank you.
