I call this the Homage Afghan because I wanted to pay homage to all of the beautiful afghans I have seen. I know myself as a knitter and sometimes I just want mindless knitting (thank you seed stitch blocks), sometimes I want something a little more interesting (thanks honeycomb, Blythe, and miters), and apparently sometimes I want to i-cord for days (that is rarely the case, but I do think the i-cord sets off the blocks nicely). I have always LOVED this colorway of Noro and decided to pay it homage as well.

This hangs over my queen sized bed with about 4 inches on the sides and the bottom.
