Celtic Knot Afghan

[susandennis]

My latest afghan is done.

• Caron's Simply Soft Bone 2604
  
• 19.5 skeins
  
• 57"x51'
  

Next time I make this... and I'm sure there will be a next time, I think I'd like to have it a little wider - maybe just adding another stripe - and a little longer - a couple of more repeats. Otherwise, I'm happy. It's a nice blanket and one that I'm sure will be a wanted Bingo prize. On to the next project!

I've been knitting for years and only this past year have started documenting my projects. The day to day thrills are kept in my knitting blog but I'm still using LJ memories to chronicle the finished projects. I think this is a clear indication that I haven't quite got the perfect system down yet...

Thanks! I do like both the finished product and the pattern. I think we'll do this one again... maybe in a nice green...

Oooh, that's lovely! I'm sure the recipient will cherish it.

Oh, and hi, you don't know me, but I discovered your LJ through tinman (http://www.livejournal.com/users/tinman/) 's friends listing, and have been enjoying your perspective on life.

Hi! And welcome! Any friend of Tinman's, etc. And thanks for the kind words about my new blanket. I never know who gets them so I can always tell myself they were gratefully received.

As you know, I love ALL the things you create but this is by far my favorite. It looks like something so dear like a rich person from Ireland owned and handed down through the generations.

Oh don't let any of those CLANCEY BROTHERS see that!

wow!

you are quite talented there Ms. S. And I can't believe the boss from Carmen Sandiego died--I heard it from you, through the daisy chain of networking that is LJ.

And it is Clancy, not Clancey. As in Tommy "Four Green Fields or we'll fookin' kneecap ya" Makem and the Clancy Brothers.
