from my husband. I have been participating in more exchanges and one of the requests is often squares for friendship afghans. Having a variety of patterns to choose from keeps me interested in making them and makes the afghans more varied for the recipients receiving them.I had not considered making an afghan square Christmas afghan for myself. However, having seen the Christmas Wreath square, the Catskill Mountain Rose, and a few others, I am tempted to think about starting one. I have quite a few other projects in my crochet cue and I have promised myself to dig out my knitting loom DVD's and see if I can master that this winter. I also need to learn to use the Knook I got for Christmas as I also received a couple of pattern books to try out with it. Therefore, the Christmas afghan may be a dream for the future. However, with more swaps and exchanges coming up, I am sure to put the squares in this book to good use.
Hi Bailey. I tried the Knook. I got all jazze and up about it, bought it. But it just doesn't do it for me. Let me know what you think once you've had a chance to play around with it. Maybe if I'd picked it up before I learned to knit. Who knows... Sounds like you had a rather crafty Christmas!!
ReplyDeleteI love to crochet, I recently just took up knitting, and wow, it's a world of difference!
