first Project Linus blanket

[DesertCrocheter]

My mom is visiting for a month, and since she's already finished one and half hardcover books in the 5 days she's been here, I thought I'd put her to work. So I hauled out the yarn I bought this weekend, printed off the basic shell pattern from the Project Linus website, and she started last night. This is the result of 1 hour. She's very funny--she knows all these stiches, she just doesn't know the names for them and insists she can't read a pattern. So I read it out loud to her. And she sewed a complete upholstery set with no pattern when I was little--!

This is made from th Caron Wintuk mist green I bought for 50 cents a skein this weekend. This is her first Project Linus blanket.
