I made this afghan for my mom for Christmas. The pattern came out of a book called 7 Day Afghans. (As a side note, I really enjoy this book. It was fun to read and get ideas. I finished this throw, and have started another out of the book. I can't say that they get done in 7 days, but they are all simple patterns to follow.)
Bulky Weight Yarn. (I forgot to see the brand of yarn, but it came in these giant skeins, bigger than a football. I used all of 5 and a little of the 6th.)
