WHAT IS A GOOD WAY OF GETTING CAT HAIR OUT OF AFGHANS

Best thing is to pretend it's not there!

Seriously.....I have no idea! All my efforts over the years have been pretty futile. Sometimes washing it with fabric softner helps loosen the bond between the cat hair and the yarn. Then put it in a dryer with no heat and a dryer sheet..... but it's not like you can brush it off or anything.

Pretend it's not there, I like that, heehee. If it was for me that would be ok but i'm donating it to the church for homeless families.

I figure it is part of the work. Extra warmth

I used scrap yarn and a different layout.

I can't believe it, I actually finished it!This is the first afghan I completed. I usually get side tracked and the squares remain my craft room waiting for the rest of the motifs to be finished or simply sewn together. Thank you Bernat, admins and designers for producing this wonderful CAL! Here is a pic of my finished afghan. I do still need to wash and lightly block but I am posting now because I am just so darned excited!

Here is the first CAL I did. When it was first finished I wished I had chosen the colors differently. Now that I have looked at it for a while, I am in love with my new afghan!

And...here is the second one I did for my daughter. She picked out the colors. It was made from scraps of other afghans I have made for her throughout the years so it has a little more sentimental feel to it for her. I checked on her this morning before she woke up and she was snuggled with it on her bed!

As I have two afghans, I thought I'd post them here together. The rose colored one is now on it's way to my aunt and the green one is graceful draped on my living room couch for all to enjoy.

You done great, just love the greens, that would look great in my living room
