Granny Square Guitar Afghan

(click here for abbreviations)

materials:
brown yarn
black yarn
white yarn (or background color of choice)
crochet hook
tapestry or yarn needle (only needed if you sew squares together or are embroidering the accents)

notes:
I have not actually made this afghan.  The graph was designed at the request of a visitor to this website looking for a pattern to make a gift.  Unfortunately, that also means that I don't know the yarn amounts.

Allow extra black yarn to either crochet or embroider the strings, bridge, and tuning pegs.  Frets optional.

on layout "\" and "/" denote which way the diagonal split between colors will run

pattern:
complete all squares using the traditional granny square and diagonal 2-color granny patterns.
