I seem to make the same pattern...
Guess I like the way it looks...
One row sc...
One row dc...
Both in the back loop...
This time....
i added 3 stripes in the middle....
In a nice soft fluffy wool....
Green...Mocha....and a creamy white...
Added a few "popcorn" puffy things at the end...
I spied an afghan on one of my favorite blogs....Cabin & Cottage...
And Jacqueline told me that she gotten it at a thrift shop...
It is gorgeous...and she said I could borrow the picture....[will share later]
To try and figure out the pattern...
It has "popcorn" stitches...so that is why I added them to this afghan...
To see if I could do it....looked it up....and figured it out...
Wish I had seen her afghan before I started this one...
BUT.......
Another project for me...
One can never have too many afghans....!
Sure hope my daughter likes it....:o)...it is for her b'day in April...
We are back from Busch Gardens.....and boy....are we bushed!!!
It was a nice day outing....loads of people...lots to see....
Will take a look at my pics, and see if any are blog worthy....
Just going to sit in the sun....the sunset will be in about 1 hour...
On the menu tonight...
Spaghettti and Meat Sauce....garlic buns....ceasar salad...
Hope you all had a great day...
One more week for us.....gosh....it goes so quickly...
But.......I can't wait to see Vivian again...:o)
Cheers! :o)

ReplyDeleteI know she will love it. Mommy made it!!
Love that green..is it Chartreuse?
This month sure has flown by.
Not sure of the name of the green...I just liked it!!
DeleteThe time has really flown by...:o(
I checked out that throw at Cabin and cottage and
ReplyDeleteit definitely is a popcorn stitch.
My Mom used to knit this stitch into her sweaters.
I'm sure there is a pattern still out there.
It is nice, eh??? Lovely in white...just like everything that Jacqueline loves!! I am going to attempt to copy it...
DeleteWow, you are quick with making and finishing an afghan! Remember that one you helped me with? Well, no surprise I am sure, I am still finishing it up :) I think this is year 24 now!!!!
ReplyDeleteCan't believe you only have one more week - it has flown by here and I can imagine how fast it has gone for you!!!

DeleteOh Linda, it is YUMMY!!! She will not only love it, she will cherish it! The colors are soft and subtle, and the bobbles at the end are just a fun touch! I love that bobble stitch. Do you remember my bobble blanket? Jubilee?

Those are so my colours, so if for some strange reason your daughter doesn't like the afghan, you can send it my way. But I just know that she will love it.
