The latest afghan - checkerboard

[susandennis]

I finished another one last night - this one is Caron's Simply Soft - Entrelac with 20 stitches per - 180 total - size 6 needles - 62 inches by 54 inches. 12 dark brown skeins and 10 bone skeins.



Here's a detailed shot:



And the obligatory cat version - Betty's just worn out by all the work she put into this one...

You are so clever it must hurt!

[susandennis]

What a wonderful thing to say. I'd love to be so clever that it hurts. Now I have a new goal.

I wish my art would keep someone warm, as well as be as beautiful as yours.

Love you, Susan: you're a real treasure.

[susandennis]

I've always wanted to be able to draw and paint and have zero talent there so I am way more flattered than I should be to have my craft called art. Thank you.

[susandennis]

Once I got this thing figured out it was really fun to do. I love the contrasting colors ideas... Now that I have the problem of yarn tails cracked, I could even do more colors... hmmmm

I want to see that cable sampler. So get cracking with the pic!

Do you sell your works of art?

[susandennis]

No, I really don't. I have in the past but it just kind of puts a different spin on the doing - a stress that changes the whole experience - so now I just give them to an AIDS hospice.

You must get a lot of satisfaction after all that work to know it goes to a good cause.

Truly a work of art.

[susandennis]

Thank you. It is very satisfying to know that someone who is hurt might well feel a moment of better snuggling under one of these. It's a great excuse, too!

Fabulous work as always!! You are so talented.

Miss Betty seems to be all tukered out admiring your handiwork.

You can't have ENOUGH cat pics in one's journal!

BRAVO
