    I forgot to post Zachary's afghan finished. I couldn't fit it all in the picture, so took part of it.

    This pattern was pretty fast.

    Some of you will remember I thought I wouldn't have enough of the kermit green to finish his other ripple afghan. Well I did and had 3 skeins to spare. We use it on our bed now. lol

    Ok, I am actually making this afghan. It will be for Daphne's baby

    It has the varigated colors like the picture, (lavender, yellow, pink, light green, white) So far it is going very fast, coming from one who hasn't done any crocheting for several years, and not much then)

    I think it will turn out good, and later I will send a picture (I HOPE!)

    This would be a great pattern for scrap yarn and odd balls, too. Must go peruse the lo yarn collection I have.

    Great job on that afghan, Sara!

    Don't ask me why all my afghans are "stripes". lol One color throughout looks so much better. My kids love their afghans though. Need shades to look at them because they're so bright though. lol

    I'm looking for another easy afghan to try too. I don't have time right now, but miss my late night crochet projects and want to have one ready for when I do get some spare time again.
