[sahm2g1b]

I love it! You did an excellent job!

[Afghaniac]

With that kind of speed with your hook, you could probablyl compete with Lily Chin! Great job on a whiz-bang design. From looking at the back, it appears to me that all the color changes were done at the ends of rows, even though on the front it looks like tapestry crochet. Is that right?

Amazing afghan!

[LEaD]

Wow! Were there a lot of ends to weave in?

Very impressive! You crochet very fast? You do not have an outside-the-home job? I could *never* find time in a week to do an afghan. Shoot, I can't even do a scarf in that time!

[DoubleTreble]

Wow! One week?! I am totally impressed! I love the detail. great work!

[AnjyB]

Oh I love it, you did a wonderful job.

[ellebee]
