Presents of Christmas Past

1.  Erins Blanket  

Afghans on the Double (102662)

Pattern: Discriminating Taste
page 56




This afghan went to my niece, Erin.
I love this pattern! It is fun to make and the color combinations are endless. Maybe someday I will get a chance to make one for myself.
I was gonna post a link on where to buy this book, but if you google  Afghans on the Double (102662) you will find different sites and prices to choose from.


2.  Shaun's Afghan  



Afghans on the Double (102662)

Pattern: Blended Rainbow
page 84

My nephew, Shaun,  is the owner of this colorful afghan. Using to strands at a time, this is a great scrap buster.

3.  Ian's Afghan 


Ian actually got his afghan Christmas 2012. My sister asked me to make one to match his new livingroom set.  This is what he ended up with.






4.  Jon's Afghan  


All the leftover yarn from Shaun's Afghan went into this classic ripple I made for my brother-in-law, Jon.  Every time I asked him what color afghan he wanted he said a different color. So he ended up with a rainbow.
