I have started to get back to work on some afghans that I have had sitting around waiting for me. In addition, I wanted to try something easy to make as a little gift for someone who was kind enough to actually send me a thank you card for a dishcloth I made for her....no one ever did that before. Many people still feel handmade =cheap. They couldn't be more wrong. And it's nice to know someone who truly appreciates my efforts. So I put this together in about a week...
The first photo was me on my toes which is why it's a little crooked. I had to fold it in half to get it in the pic so its twice that length. The second photo is more true to the actual color and shows off the wave pattern to its best advantage. I made it from Big Twist Rainbow Classic using THIS pattern for everything but the edging. I improvised that using filet and hdc. I used a K hook. It measures about 38" x 50"....just big enough to use as a sofa or chair throw. I know the recipient will like it.
Hoping to get a couple of my other afghans done before too long. Will post about them when I do.
Crochet, Away!
