Ribbon Afghan Update!

Now that the Prayer Shawl is done, I was able to pick up the Ribbon afghan again. Yay! This one is so much fun with all of the colors. :) I have decided that I will just crochet all those ends in when I add the border to this afghan. The question is...... What color should the border be? Aran? White? Or should I add a black border? I really am not sure what I want to do. I was orignally thinking the Aran. But then I added some white into the stripes and thought it was really pretty. And the black would make all the colors stand out. BUT, would the black take away from the overall effect of colors in it now?

Here is a different angle to show you all the colors that are in the afghan. I did decide to add another color into it. I will be added another shade of brown to it today. :) Can't wait to see how it will look in there.


And this is a gift I received for Christmas. What a great gift it is. Loads of room to store my yarn and project. And there are a lot of pockets to put things into as well. :) Right now I have all the yarn for the Ribbon afghan in there. It fits in perfectly.



Have a wonderful day everyone!

Oh Wednesday!

Granny Ripple!

Just love this afghan! So easy to work up. About to be at the halfway point with this one now. Then to add an edging to it. :) I am using Red Heart yarn in Aran, Med Thyme, and Windsor Blue. I am making it 3 rows of Aran and then 5 rows each of Windsor Blue and Med Thyme.

Ribbon Afghan!
This one is also a lot of fun to make. :) Such an easy pattern. Once you have the first couple of rows done, its just a repeat the rest of the way through. I am not sure of all the names of the colors in this one. I am just using up a lot of my stash yarn for it.

I have another skein of a brown color, that I am considering adding to the mix in this one. I have two shades of brown in it now, and Aran. I have tons of skeins of Aran. So I guess I will be using that in a lot of my scrap along projects.

 I have not done any more work on the scarf I posted about earlier. I will get back to it again soon. :) Been really wanting to work on these two afghans.....



Have a wonderful day everyone!
