I had five balls of this yarn, but I only ended up using three of them. The stitch I used was chain 3 and 2 double crochet in the same spot, then skip 3 and connect it. Or something like that. That's what I did for the border on the sides; the top and bottom were curvy from the first line. It's pretty warm and I just love the colors. Two balls won't be enough for another blanket, but I have two balls of pink variegated that kinda matches, so I might do something with that...I thought about writing a verse to give with the blanket, but I don't know what Her Choice will want. I'm going to call there on Monday to ask about donating the blankets (I got my car fixed--again, and finally! so I can take them any time). If anyone has cool yarn to donate... :-) I'm about at the end of my "cool yarn stash". I'm working on one right now, and then all I'll have is boring regular yarn. :-)

Cool!! I love the colors! I'm ready to do the border on my first one. I'll see about getting a pic posted so you can see. You are so imaginative with your afghans! I don't know how to "make up" crochet directions (only recipes!!). :)

Who am I, you ask?
In 2006 I had a stroke, and every day my husband encourages me to use my remaining brain cells to the best of my ability. I love to organize, make crafts, and go on adventures (safe ones). I hope that through my blog posts, you will be encouraged to accept and make the best of challenges God throws at your life. Categories
