Stage one off the to-do list
Feb. 17th, 2004 12:30 pmA couple weeks ago, my sister asked me to make her baby-in-progress a Tigger afghan, since I did a Pooh afghan for her first child. Since that's the only thing she asked for, I couldn't say no, but let's put this project in perspective:
The Pooh afghan took 6 months of multicolored crocheting, sometimes up to 12 different colors per row. Two weeks to weave all the ends in neatly, since I wanted it to be (a) very sturdy, and (b) reversible. And it's about 3 1/2' by 4 1/2'.
I did Pooh from a graph I found on a crochet site years and years ago; it's no longer there, I think. Haven't found a free graph for Tigger, so I've spent the morning making one to work from.
Now, off to the yarn cabinet, to see what I've got (and how much)that'll work for this project.
(Yes, I know, I said I wouldn't do something like this again. But when my little sister asks for things like this so seldom, it's sooo hard to refuse.)
