Here is my finished afghan. I have never made a knitted afghan before. I have really enjoyed making this one. I think that I will head to Michael's this week and get the yarn to make either the 2012 CAL or the "old" KAL. Decisions, decisions :)

Oh, that is just beautiful! I am going to start the 2009 KAL soon. I have four or five shades of yarn and just need to decide which ones I want to use. I probably have enough for two afghans! :inlove:

I love it! That would go perfect in my bedroom. What colors did she use?


This is my first post, my friend lkwcross taught me how to respond (duh)! I used Birch White, Aqua Frost, Greek Sea, Stone Brown and Bark. Those were the best colors for my room. Thanks for your comments.


Thanks!

knitting wrote:Well hello fellow knitters. I have finished. :bravo: I have altered the layout a little on mine as I really didn't like all the pink together. Originally my colors included white rather than the sundrift but all the Michaels stores in my area did not have the white. I am satisfied with my final colors though as they go with my comforter in my bedroom and my sofa in my living room. I also made a wider top and bottom boarder as I didn't like the narrower version. Someone had mentioned having the same design on the top and bottom that we have on the sides and I also thought that would be nice. Therefore I decided to see what I can come up with and on my second one I make for my daughter I may put it on if it turns out ok. I will post photos of what I come up with later. Here is my mystery afghan.


:bravo: Congratulations! Your afghan is beautiful! :inlove:

OMG! Please tell Brylee that her afghan is truly OUTSTANDING! WOW... :bravo: :thumbsup: :inlove: What else can I say..............


Thank you, and may I say I think your afghan is just beautiful! The layout and the way your red star stands out is perfect. Also, you are quite the photographer, gathering the light was just right! :thumbsup:


:hellogoodbye: Hi Brylee...I'm glad you learned how to post! :hug: I thought the forum was definitely half the fun of the Mystery Afghan. Thanks for the compliment on my afghan too. :knit:

Beautiful work craftycanuck! :bravo: Can you believe that you knit an afghan in two months? I never would have thought it could be done. Happy knitting!

I know. I always thought that it would take months and months to do an afghan.

I am having my DH bring up my stash so I can see IF I need to make a trip to buy yarn or not :)

Thanks for all the compliments!
