Crocheted Afghan
I did this for a change. The yarn was $8 for a 16 oz ball of yarn. And the one ball did the entire blanket. Love that. No stray ends to weave in allover the place. All ready for those cold winter nites. Meanwhile on Sunday the humidex reading will be 40 C.

Re: Crocheted Afghan
what a beautiful shade of red. my grandma taught me how to crochet but i haven't done it in probably 20+ years. i always resented that it wasn't knitting...never happy with the blessings we do have!

Re: Crocheted Afghan
It's beautiful Linda! You did a wonderful job, and the color is gorgeous!!
Re: Crocheted Afghan
Oh that's gorgeous. I would love to try something like this, but I'm just learning to crochet, so maybe not yet.
Re: Crocheted Afghan
My Nana taught me to crochet as well. I think I was about 6. She taught me to knit at the same time too but I like to crochet best. I have another big ball of yarn the same colour so I an doing another one, different pattern though. It is great to take to my friends house because she doesn't have the light I need to stitch there. Keeps my hands busy. No rush to finish , just nice to do something different once in a while.

This is great,
I crocheted a blanket for granddaughter, it kept me very warm when I was doing it.

Re: Crocheted Afghan
Wow!!! Thats gorgeous Linda.I have never been able to master crochet,i have a very patient friend who has tried to teach me numerous times and while she is sitting with me i'm fine,but when she goes home and i'm left to my own devices it all goes wrong i can knit though my Gran taught me when i was little.
Re: Crocheted Afghan
It looks great! I have everything needed to start crocheting, but just haven't done it.
