Warm and Toasty

As promised a better picture of this afghan from Diana K.  YOu saw it all folded up last time, and here it is (already tabulated), laid out after being laundered.  Who doesn't love a ripple.  A ripple and granny squares aren't those the first two designs that pop into your head when you think of a traditional afghan!

 Awesome work, again Diana K, thank you.

    Love the ripple afghan Diana. So very pretty.
    Well Marj, MI is getting your 6 inches of snow. We are getting snow tonight, up to 4 - 6 inches over night. Tomorrow is to be 35. Send that 40 over here also.

    Sorry Sue, this 6 inches of snow got to be a mess. Wouldnt wish it on anyone!:+) I am going to enjoy the 40s though for the next two days. We really deserve it after what we have been through. Take care.

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
