Soft Bouclé Ripple Lapghan (Crochet)

This is another beautiful lapghan I think

49 inches wide by 46 inches high

I have three things on my list that I want to do next after the Pinwheel
and I don't know which I want to do first. This is one of them on that list.

Half Way

I have had this camara for two years now, and I don't think I will ever figure the old thing out.

I hope that you can see how pretty this design is from these pics. Sorry that the quality isn't the best, but I think you will be able to see just how this ghan shows a beautiful sculptured affect when it's done.

Pinwheel Afghan (Crochet)

I have started working on one very beautiful afghan this past week.

It's called 'Pinwheel' Afghan
I was RAOK'ed at CrochetMania a few months back with the "Herrshner's Blue Ribbon Afghans" book (as well as some other very nice things). I just love all of the patterns in it. I didn't know which one I wanted to do first, they are all so beautiful.

This is the one that I decided to do first. I am making this one for a sweet lady and I hope that she will like it.

Here are a couple of pics. I now have 20 more pinwheels finished since I made these pics that I will be joining together and adding to the ghan tomorrow. I will post
a pic when I have those added. Here is the ghan.....done in a 'Frosty Green' 4-ply

(pics are clickable)

You can find this book listed on ebay.

Your Comments On The Red Heart Yarns

I for one love the Red Heart Yarns. They do have a few that tend to be just a bit stiff, but I have found them to soften up nicely after they have been washed and dried with fabric softener (any kind seems to do just fine).

They are excellent priced and very durable. I have used other yarns that I would have to admit are to die for, but I am still very fond of the Good Old Red Yarns.

Post your comments on what you think of the Red Heart Yarns

and do you have another yarn that is your favorite?

Post that too and why you like it best overall,

I am always interested in trying new yarns and would love

to hear what yours is,and why.

Thanks CrochetManiacs Everywhere.

Have A CrochetManiacs Kind Of Day!!
