2014 Any Afghan CAL

[dragonpuck]

wow everyone has been busy- lots of pretty stuff
i have been as well-- busy that is

crochet crowd challenge

it is a scarf pattern- I made 5 and attached them

 lapghan size  turtles

two soccerball 'ghans:: the pattern called for a rolled edge, but when I followed the pattern the whole thing rolled- I could have stuffed it and made a pillow!!! so I just made a flat border.  Re-did the edge for the second and got a "flat" rolled edge

 

I then started the 10 stitch  that someone posted here( in tunisian - sc and I don't get along) but rememberd that I had 2 daisy afghans  half finished  so here is the first of them

one more  to put together and then on to some new ones

This one was fun to make, but I did get very tired of counting to 193.

I'm going to be joining you all this year.  I have some afghans that need to get done, especially for Christmas gifts.  I have 4 that I would like to see completed.  Right now I'm working on Sunbonnet Sue for my daughter.  I'm crocheting each block, then cross-stitching Sue and for the border of each block, I work a round of HDC and a round of DC.  So far I have 8 blocks put together and 4 blocks ready to cross-stitch on.  This post is going to have several pictures.  I'm trying to make each block a different color, except the corners.

 

    

 

 

 

Below is the first panel put together.

Pretty--that looks like a lot of work, Lynn!

Homesteadwife. I love that it is wonderful

[homesteadingwife]

Thanks ladies!  I can usually crochet one block during the day and the next day I can cross-stitch on the block.  If my kids don't need me to much. 

 

Thanks again.

 

Have a great day!

Take 4, hopefully this post will work. I apologize if I have mutiplr posts but I keep getting error messages. Here is a lapghan i just finished. It will be donated to our local hospital for a cancer patient

[greyhoundgrandma]

Very pretty, pliefeld! I really like that design.

[pliefeld]

Very pretty, pliefeld! I really like that design.

Thanks. The pattern is actually a baby blanket but I used worsted weight and a larger hook. It was a lot of fun to make.

[Kristy Taylor]

here is my first completed afghan which will actually get a backing and be turned into a rug

[pliefeld]

Here is my latest charity blanket

[LegalWoman17]

Hot off my hook, my newest afghan.  It is the Leaping Stripes and Blocks afghan from the wonderful Moogly. I absolutely love this pattern and will definitely be making more of these in the future.

 

The yarn is I Love This Yarn from Hobby Lobby.  Colors are Brown, Country Blue, Mid Green and White. For the border, I just did three rows of single crochet (white, green, blue) and one row (the brown) in half double crochet.

This has been a WIP for a while now. finally took time to finish it.  I think I will donate it to the American legion for Flag day

[VikingRunnerGirl]

There are some beautiful designs in here since I checked in last! I love just about all of them. Ok, all of them!

 

Here's one that I made for my son, with leftover yarn from the drop in the pond baby afghan I did. And then... five more skeins, because I didn't have nearly enough for a full blanket. I finished it just in time for the weather to turn warm, of course, and it's a super bulky yarn! But he loves it, and he was so excited that I made a "squares blanket" just for him.

Finished the log cabin afghan for my stepfather.  Was supposed to be a throw but is pictured on my queen size bed.  Gave it to him anyway but making a different, smaller throw. Log cabin pattern free from Red Heart - just arranged the squares differently.

I am loving everyones work

 

here is what I have been working on

Went thru my  patterns cleaned out a bunch that no longer interest me but I found this gem

 

Someone posted the granny spool afghan , I got a copy and started making centers- foune that I had t colorways so I made 3 baby size rather than one big one

 

and lastly some pinwheel action!

 

I have two more in pieces and another ready to start( when I finish one of these
