Default DHs Anniversary Afghan

Here is the afghan I made for DH for our anniversary. I was working on it and ran out of ombre. I told him I needed to go to Walmart. He said, "Make it that size and call it quits!" He didn't know it was for him! LOL! It was big enough though. Men just don't understand yarn buying.

Very nice. What stitches did you use? Hard to see in the picture. It's lovely.

It's just a basic shell stitch. I just chained until I thought it would cover Dh and started making shells.
