[7/11/2003] Mile-A-Minute baby afghan
Another baby gift for a friend. Pattern Source: From the book Mile-A-Minute Afghans.
Trellis close-up
See previous photo for description and pattern source.
Trellis afghan
[7/15/2003] I really love this pattern -- the texture, and the way it's different on each side. Even cooler, it's done using 2 rows of one color alternating with 2 rows of the other color -- no color changes within a row. The effect is done by using post and long stitches that extend down into previous rows. Pattern Source: Mosaic Magic: Afghans Made Easy by Lily Chin.
Sophisticated Swirl
I made this afghan in June 1996 for some friends' wedding. The pattern is from Quick and Cozy Afghans, a Leisure Arts book. I highly recommend this book for beginner and advanced crocheters alike -- lots of easy, but beautiful, patterns in here. This swirl afghan is not only easy -- the only stitches used are sc and ch -- but it's very quick and warm, because it's made with two strands of worsted-weight yarn. I have to make one of these for myself. Pattern Source: Quick and Cozy Afghans can be ordered from Amazon.
Ripple-effect mosaic afghan and matching pillow
Homespun mosaic afghan in colors "Barrington" and "Montana Sky." The matching pillow was a bit of a challenge since the top and bottom edges of the pattern are scalloped, but they fit together like a jigsaw puzzle, so it worked. Pattern Source: Mosaic Magic: Afghans Made Easy by Lily Chin.
Prairie Star Afghan
[3/20/2003] As I've mentioned, I love quilt-like afghans! Pattern Source: Got this from a kit at Mary Maxim. Unfortunately, they no longer seem to carry it, but PurpleKitty Yarns is currently offering a copy free with any purchase.
Pillowghan (folded up)
Pillowghan, folded into pillow. See previous photo for description and pattern source.
Pillowghan
My first attempt at an afghan that folds up into a pillow. (See next photo for how it looks folded.) Pattern Source: Quick & Easy Crochet magazine, September/October 1997 issue. I do not know if this can be backordered; if you wish to try, the address in the front of the magazine is P.O. Box 7129, Red Oak, IA 51591-0129.
Mosaic Homespun Afghan
This is kind of a cool technique; it looks as if there's more than one color per row, but there's really not. Pattern Source: Mosaic Magic Afghans Made Easy by Lily Chin. Great book; there are lots of afghans done with this technique.
Mile-A-Minute
This is an afghan I made for my mother. Pattern Source: Leisure Arts leaflet #2702, A Year of Afghans, Book Six , available from Country Yarns -- click on the link and order Leisure Arts leaflet number 2702.
Homespun Granny Square Afghan
[7/19/2002] I didn't use a pattern for this -- it's just basic granny squares made from Lion Brand Homespun yarn.

Homespun is the best yarn ever! Pattern Source: In Love With Crochet by Leisure Arts.

[11/16/2004] Made this for a friend. Pattern Source: Mosaic Magic: Afghans Made Easy by Lily Chin.

Another from Quick and Cozy Afghans. Pattern Source: Amazon has this book.
Drunkard's Path "quilt" afghan.
[1/8/2005] I've wanted to do a quilt-like afghan for a while, so I chose the Drunkard's Path pattern with my favorite yarn, Lion Brand Homespun. Pattern Source: Homespun 6 Crocheted Quilt Afghans leaflet from Lion Brand Yarn Company.
