I usually baste the whole afghan RS together. I just fold the thing in half and work a basting stitch from the fold to the other side of the fold and pop it in the washer. Keep in mind all my afghans are done in acrylic yarn so they can be washed. I made the mistake once, and only once, of making a baby blanket in Cotton Tale 8. Talk about heavy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
