Sea and Sand Knitted Afghan

Not the best picture, but it's done folks.  Long last!  Whew, I've been knitting this it seems forever.  It needs to be laundered and blocked yet, but finally Sea and Sand Afghan is done.  It's very large and will be a bit larger once blocked no doubt.

It might be part of fund raiser for Homeless Families Foundation, and it might be donated as we do the others for The Welcome Home Project.

WOOT WOOT, messed around more and found the page somehow hidden...but please still feel free to let us know if you have a good pattern to add!!  Here's the Mitten Tab.

Folks, if you missed the  post where I included a graph of how we're doing with each of the items we knit and crochet and donate and compared it to this time last year.  Please click HERE

    Simply BEAUTIFUL Sandy!!! You do such beautiful work. I think it would make a very good fund raiser and would make lots of $$! I just don't know how you do all you do......you remind me of the energizer bunny.....what vitamins do you take.....I want to get me some! So glad we have you as our motivator because you sure do motivate me!

    I do so much like your Sea and Sand Afghan. It is worth all the work and stitches you have put into it.
