Recycled Yarn into a Baby Afghan One Of A Kind

ONE OF A KIND!
You can make all kinds of things with a little bit of this and that around the craft supplies. Look at what I came up with, yarn that would not have been enough for a project, but put together and came up with this beautiful Baby Afghan. All you have to do is put colors together that go together and you will end up with a very pretty one of a kind.
This Afghan is made from the pattern Corner to Corner. With bits and pieces of small balls of yarn not big enough to make a full items.
As I'm thinking, I could have used this same yarn and made a very colorful baby sweater or maybe a hat too!
Put your mind to work and you can come up with a lot of different projects.

Large Afghan Done


These is the afghan that I was working on for my daughter for about three months. My daughter and I designed it together. She wanted me to make big squares, so I did. Then I let her decide how they where to be sewed together. This is what we ended up with. It fits a full size bed. The squares are made in the corner to corner pattern. You can find the link to the pattern on my blog.
God bless and have a great day!

Afghan Corner to Corner


Afghan Corner to Corner
The Afghan that I've been working on from January.
Well this is almost done! I need to finish the one block and then we need to work on the layout. Then we will be ready to join together. Hope this inspires you to try something new.
