Red Bricks Crochet Afghan Pattern

February 16, 2015 by AllFreeCrochet

Red Bricks Crochet Afghan Pattern
The amazing textures and unique geometry of this Red Bricks Crochet Afghan are sure to make a strong statement. The stitch pattern is easy to memorize and you’ll love snuggling under this stunning crochet afghan pattern as you work it up.  The fun brick-like texture is made with the front post double crochet, keeping things just interesting enough to not make the pattern boring to work up.  Making it in a solid color brings an extra touch of sophistication to something so simple. Using the super-soft Bernat Blanket yarn makes for an extra cuddly little afghan, that everyone from 1 to 90 years old will love.
