I've just started a Christmas afghan for my couch - here it is on the needles:

The details:
Yarn: Red Heart "Dark Sage", 2 strands held together.
Needles: Size 13 (9 mm) circular needle.
Pattern: "One Row Blanket" by Mimi Davis. You can find it here.
Only one row for the pattern - great mindless knitting!
