Spring afghan

Apr 19, 2012 09:25

I'm crocheting a series of afghans to use as 'decor'. So far I've completed one for Halloween and one for Christmas. I'm about 2/3 the way through a 'winter' one, but it's quite thick and the weather has warmed up too much to have that much heavy fabric covering me while I work. I'll finish that one in the autumn, and it'll be ready for next winter.

Last night, I finished the 'spring' one. I should clarify that it's 'spring' more in colour than in weight, although it can be cool enough here in Northwest England to need something of this weight any time of year. At any rate, it looks pretty draped over the back of my sofa.



As you can see in the closeup of the stitchwork, it's a ripple pattern made mostly of double crochet (British triple), but with a band (the lavender) of decorative 'holes' to give it extra visual interest.



I've finished off several other projects, but don't have good enough photos yet to post.
