First Afghan
Submitted by crochetjr on Wed, 2009-06-24 14:43.This afghan is awesome! When I finish it, it will be the first afghan that I have ever made! :-) I have already done around 12 or 13 squares, which will be about half of the afghan. (I plan to make my afghan a 5*5 square afghan.) My afghan uses a wide variety of different colors in no particular pattern. I haven't worked on it in a few weeks because I've been busy, but I plan to get back to it as soon as possible.
First Afghan (update)
Submitted by crochetjr on Thu, 2009-07-02 10:40.Hey everyone! I have finally started back to working on my Good Cause Afghan! I have added on a few more squares and I now have 17 squares on it! instead of doing a 5*5 afghan, I changed my mind and will make it a 6*6 afghan. (Maybe 7*7. I don't know.) I will be sure to keep you updated and I hope this inspires you to make this afghan, too! (If you don't have the magazine, check under "free patterns". Yes, it has recently become a free pattern!)
Thank you...
