Miscellaneous Afghan CAL

[detroitdeb]

Both blue afghans look so nice! Don't know where you guys are: but in this area the wind chill is going to 20 below, good day to snuggle under an afghan or a WIP afghan!

Wow, everyone's work is looking so great. You're all doing such a great job.

 

It's super cold here in NE Indiana too and I've been plugging away at the roses afghan. All squares (25) are done and I've started joining them. Have two rows down, three to go but I giving it a rest for tonight.

Hello everybody! It's great to read of your progress and see your pics!

It's terrible cold here too. It would be nice to snuggle up on the sofa with my crocheting but responsibility calls.

 

:cheerAfter almost a year I have finished my dad's afghan, Iam sooooo glad it is finished, could have done it alot quicker, but other things got in the way.

 

Here are a few pics, sorry about the quality of some, the flash didn't go off.

 

I gave the afghan to my dad about half an hour ago and he loves it!

really glad it's gone, there are 5 cats that are not:lol

 

Working on 3 pet blankets at the moment, almost completed 1, just doing the border.

 

Wow! Congratulations! A job well done! I'll update the first post.

I finished MY 2 strander last night. I don't have pictures of it yet, but I will take some shortly. I now have to finish my DS's 2 strander, then my scrap wave ripple, and 2 RR's.

 

It is extremely cold here too with a winter storm on the way. And if what the only forecaster I trust says holds true, we are going to get dumped on with lots of snow. I'm going to stay nice and toasty warm trying to get DS's 2 strander done.

So I'm going to have to start a new afgan, I told my boyfriend I'd make him one for his birthday and May's coming up faster then I thought! I'm doing a really simple pattern since this is my first afgan that isn't squares sewn together! That and I doubt he'd want an afgan with alot of holes or crazy patterns (thank goodness)

Will do!

[laurawithchild]

Holy smokes! I can hardly believe it! I am practically finished my Diamond Trellis afghan. Only have the edging left to finish so hopefully I will be done tonight (depending on how much time I have tonight) SOOOOOO EXCITED! I have never actually made an adult afghan, only baby blankets, and scarves and hats and such.

[jmccrochet]

I finished the rose afghan. Here are different views

 

 

 

That's one down, two to go, plus the SP swap and the squares for that and the Traveling Hook II

Joyce, that is lovely... the colors you chose go so nicely together - very stunning!

[jollylolli]

Sure its just a simple blue afgan, I didn't realize how hard it is to pick out a pattern that he'd like! Hopefully it looks good, this is my first try at this!

Thank you Krystal. It's for my sister's MIL and she had already bought the two greens (she was going to start crocheting again but didn't). She gave me the yarn and I promised her an afghan but wasn't sure a total of six skeins would be enough so I dug in my stash. I was unsure about the buff as the joining yarn but was THRILLED with how it turned out.

 

I gotta say, if it weren't for this place, I'd still be crocheting afghans back and forth back and forth and not branching out to squares and joining and thinking of all the neat things we hookers can do.

[laurawithchild]

Oh wow that rose afghan is gorgeous!! Love the colors! And I also finished my afghan (the Diamond Trellis one)! Hooray! Will post pics later today.....

[karebear]

Joyce, that is just stunning!! Fantastic job!

 

I am finishing panel number 7 today, only 4 more to go before I start piecing it together. I can't wait.

[detroitdeb]

I am so impressed, this is so gorgeous!!! Well done!!:clap:clap

Oh I love that, great job!

 

Can I add a few more to my list please Barb

 

I have 3 pet blankets started, retro babette and I finished a lapghan last year which I don't think I posted.

 

Will post some pics later when I have better lighting

[laurawithchild]

Ta-da! Here it is....my first adult afghan! Finished it yesterday morning, and then used it all day But I have come to realize something about the other afghan I was making. Tunisian crochet is not easy on my hands, so I think I will be putting that afghan up (probably will reuse the yarn for other projects). I am however starting another afghan to replace the Christmas one for my grandmother called Rippling Shells. So here we go! Oh yea, both my boys want afghans too...I forsee a lot of busy-ness in my future

Here is a picture of my complete Popcorn Diamond baby blanket. It's kind of stretched on one side because my two nieces were playing with it.
