Heather414 Posted June 16, 2011 I just finished up this afghan today and just in the nick of time! The wedding is this weekend! The pattern is from Fisherman Crochet Afghans Leisure Arts Leaflet 250 (designed by Anne Rabun Ough). I used Wool-Ease and both an I and J hook. The gift is for my husband's niece and her intended who tie the knot on Saturday. I hope they will enjoy some quality snuggle time using the afghan. (At least early on....my husband and I each have our own afghans now!) This was a challenging project, but, it was fun doing all the different stitches. If you'd like to see more photos, this link will take you directly to my blog post about the afghan. http://heather-thegoodlife.blogspot.com/2011/06/fisherman-wedding-afghan-tale-is.html Thanks for looking and happy crocheting!

kittyloverdeb Posted June 16, 2011 Just beautiful! I made that one years ago and it took me forever! I never got around to putting the fringe on so I just use it without. I'm sure the happy couple will love and appreciate it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crabby rat Posted June 16, 2011 Looks GREAT! Is this worked all in one piece, or is it panels that you join later? Too bad I'm not half the happy couple... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heather414 Posted June 17, 2011 Thank you all for your nice comments. I'm on cloud 9... I've never seen this particular pattern in a book, just the leaflet. Actually a nice lady on Crochetville gifted me with the leaflet a few years ago. The afghan is done in one piece worked lengthwise. Thanks again!
