Many said it couldn't be done, but voila! I finished the afghan. I call it the HDC Afghan since I gave it to my friend HDC. She was the one who picked out the pattern that I used, so I think she earned the naming privileges. The pattern is Diamonds and Ferns and I did learn that it really wasn't easy to do on a 36" circular knitting needle size 10. Probably would have been better on a size 6 or even smaller. But I think it still turned out great!
I'm on to a new afghan now, but this one will be made up of 63 different squares all using different patterns and a combination of 4 different colors. The book that I'm using to create it is called Barbara Walker's learn-to-knit afghan book by Barbara G. Walker. And before you ask, no I did not buy this book - we had it in our collection at NCSU. Sorry everyone, before you start to ask - this one has been claimed even though it is nowhere near finished!
