I do not know about you but some patterns just make me smile when I see them and this is one of those. Having seen sawtooth patterns a few times before I have always dismissed them as being too difficult so I was really pleasantly surprised to see this one rated Easy! And now having made a small sample piece I can happily say that it really is easy. I can also see that that it crochets up to be lovely warm afghan so is going to be really popular in the coming winter, lol!

Wow! I'm glad to see that you have made a sample and think this pattern is correct on its difficulty rating! Thanks for going on ahead! I'm a bit of a novice but I'd like to try an afghan. One wonderful thing about it is you can keep the neutral gray and add another color of your choice and tailor it to your decor or for gift giving!

This afghan should be easy for beginners. Classified as easy. I like the color combination as I've always like the gray/red, gray/pink combo. Thanks for having the pattern in front. Easy for us.

Confused on the pattern. Row 1, after Turn, pattern indicates 95 sts (stitches). I don't understand what to do here. Is it referring to doing a slip stitch across the row I just finished? Or something else? Thank you for your help!
