Its now Saturday night and I'm just chilling from a day of errands, laundry and house cleaning. Yeah..I clean house every once in a while, mostly when I am out of clean eating utensils and clothes.
So I've been a working on the afghan and have the 6 inch squares done. There are 12 total. They look like this:
The 4 at each corner have the same pattern but a different background color.
This piece has :
Caron Simply Soft in Soft Blue
Mary Maxim Starlette in Green
Caron Simply Soft in Bone
Mary Maxim Starlette in Natural
Mary Maxim Starlette in Chocolate
I changed out the Chocolate for Camel in the corner squares. The Camel is Mary Maxim Starlette.
Altogether it is looking pretty grand, if I do say so myself and I do!
The pattern is called Sunburst Granny Squares by Priscilla Hewitt.
I've started on the small 3 inch squares which will surround the whole middle. Ah...what have I gotten myself into. Each 3 inch square has 3 colors which means 6 ends times, let's see, a billion?? Hmm...I may want to rethink that. I don't mind weaving in ends, but there is a limit.
I just realized that I need to make a Christmas present. So this goes on the back burner while I peruse Pinterest and Ravelry to find a neat pattern. Shhhh...don't tell.
