At a glance, Natalie's afghan looks so simple but it really is. The color used here for this elegant afghan is chocolatey, you want to eat it. There are lots of skips and turns in this pattern which will add to its exciting and unique appeal. Thanks for this free pattern which is easy to do and understand.

Very pretty!
