Blast from the Past in Pattern Form

Remember this afghan?
I blogged about it back in February.
And... in response to some requests, the pattern is available at my Etsy shop.

The colors remind me of an ice-cream sundae...
Sweet shades of cherry, mint, blueberry...
Vanilla cream and chocolate brown.


PATTERN DESCRIPTION

This PATTERN is for a delightfully soft blanket crocheted with sweet shades of pink, aqua, green, chocolate brown, and vanilla cream. The pattern is a modern take on the classic Granny Square, featuring a pinwheel in the center of each motif for a bit of whimsy. The vanilla cream scalloped edging is the perfect finishing touch to this cozy afghan.

Pattern includes instructions for motifs and includes the exact color combination of all 77 motifs, so you will not have to think about color arrangement at all. It's already been done for you!

A Motif Arrangement Chart is included, so you will know precisely where each motif should be placed. Also included are instructions for a join-as-you-go method of joining motifs, so your afghan will come together quite quickly. (Your own favorite method of joining motifs will also work.)

Finished afghan size is 48" x 32", and is just the right size for a baby, toddler, or even a lap afghan.

Pattern includes lots of photos and a large, easy-to-read font.

Stitches Used:
Chain (ch)
Slip Stitch (slst)
Single Crochet (sc)
Half Double Crochet (hdc)
Double Crochet (dc)
Double Crochet Cluster (dccl)
(Instructions for special stitches included.)

You may sell finished items you've made from this pattern. Please link back to my shop if selling online or if you blog about your finished afghan. Thanks! :)

Plum Pudding Granny Square Afghan

Remember the first "Plum Pudding" Granny Square afghan I crocheted? Well... I recently completed another LARGER "Plum Pudding" afghan as a custom order for the same lady who bought the original afghan. I guess she liked the first one so much she wanted another one. hehe

She really is a super lady... and it truly was a pleasure crocheting another afghan for someone who loved the first one just as much as I did. But it's getting really hard to part with these babies! I REALLY need to crochet a Granny Square afghan for myself in these colors. But I think I need to give my fingers a rest first. hehe

Ice Cream Sundae Afghan

I finished my latest crochet project today...

A blanket for a baby girl...
Or a sweet little lady.

The colors remind me of an ice-cream sundae...
Sweet shades of cherry, mint, blueberry...
Vanilla cream and chocolate brown.


I love traditional Granny Square afghans...
But I decided the first round should be a pinwheel...
And I finished the afghan off with a scalloped edge.


Available for purchase at my Etsy shop. :)

Blue and Off-White Granny Afghan

Granny Squares Galore!

Granny Square Afghan Crocheted with Caron Simply Soft Brites

I Love Granny Square Afghans!

A work in progress...

(The color in this photo is way off. All the colors are really much more muted and much lighter. The orange-yellow in this picture is really just yellow.)

Pretty Posy Afghan for A Sweet Little Girl

I found the PATTERN for the floral motif at BEV'S COUNTRY COTTAGE, and incorporated it with some regular granny squares. The green round on the yellow and pink granny squares was done in hdc so those squares would be the same size as the floral motifs.

So Soft and Cuddly!

I recently completed this cozy afghan...

Crocheted with Caron Simply Soft Yarn in Off-White....

Which is more of a soft, buttery-yellow...
which I absolutely love!

Large Flower Afghan

(I don't use this afghan as a bedspread.
I just put it on my bed to take the pic.)
