Almost Preppy Stripes

It's finished! Well, except for the border. And the 100s of ends (or at least it seems that way right now) I'm just surprised I got it this far without giving up on it. I like it, but didn't think it would have that much yellow in it. Not my favorite color, but it works in this afghan.

I probably have enough of Red Heart Cornflower yet, to do the first afghan in Tender Lovin' Care Afghans. Not enough of the other colors though, so that idea is on hold. I may try something totally different for my next project.

Corner to Corner Afghan

This is a one week afghan! While recovering from a heart procedure, I could do nothing but sit on my couch and crochet. So I did.

The pattern is from Bernat, but no longer available on the web, unless it is archived. I printed it out in 2006, and this is the 3rd one I've made from this pattern. I really like the colors of this one, which kept me crocheting on it until it was finished!
