Buckeye Afghan

Buckeye Afghan has been in the works for awhile.  The center red square was donated awhile back.  It was too small to be afghan or lapghan, so it's been added onto here and there, as I had appropriate yarn colors.  Some red, some gray...both light and dark, black and variegated red and gray.  Here it is being blocked after it was laundered.

Almost everyone in Ohio loves Buckeye Colors.  It works for men, or women, or teens.

We've not hit last years number of donated ghans, and have 36 days left.  Can we get 30 afghans in that period of time?  Who knows, maybe a few out there have some that are in the finishing stages?  We'll see how we end up.  Got my toes and fingers crossed.

**We started the year with the number of items we had donated last year, 2016; and will subtract our donations from that.  Using the end number for 2016 as the goal for the each item.  So, as the year continues you will see numbers decrease.  Our goal is to meet and surpass the number of items donated last year.**

All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated. The Power of One is awesome, and when we work together The Power of One becomes The Power of Many.
