Reverse lacy shell afghan WIP

Reverse Shell Afghan of Many colors

This is still a WIP (work in progress) which means I need to sew in the ends and create an edging for it.  I crocheted it in strips using mango as the main color in all the strips but changing the contrasting color in each strip.  Designing it was really fun.  Crocheting it was complex enough to keep my attention.  Only one in three rows is ever turned.  The result is an afghan that is quite different on each side.  The upper part of this foto shows the contrasting color side, while the lower part shows the main color, mango side.  I crocheted this for myself.  I made it to the measurements of my bed.  If I were to do it again, I would add one or two more strips to make it wider.  I used Caron's Simply Soft.  It is ultra ultra warm because basically it is the thickness of two afghans on top of each other.  This particular lacy shell stitch creates a double fabric.

This foto is a close up with the the afghan folded so that you can see both sides.

  Whew!  I am glad it is almost finished.  I refused to make it a UFO even tho I wanted to crochet Christmas presents and a few other fascinating things.  What
 do you think?   When I am completely finished with it I will write out the pattern.  It is a bit tricky and has to be exact in order to match up the over 100 rows.
