My work on the afghan has continued on. It's now about four feet long and two feet wide. It folds up now, to go in my project bag, which is no less than awesome.
I'm not sure how big I'm going to make this afghan, but if I can make it four feet square, it should be roughly half done. I don't want it to be incredibly large, but I do want it to be of a decent size, so we'll have to wait and see!
It's very different to work on an afghan versus normal crochet. With so many hexagons made, there tends to be little mistakes and issues bound up in them. You don't notice when you look at it at all, but when you're making it, you have to laugh. Making an afghan also teaches you new ways to change colors and weave ends in as you go. Despite the fact that I already knew how to crochet, it's still taught me a great deal to do something like this, that I haven't done a lot of before.
