5 Afghans and Counting, for Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Marsha M for this generous donation of afghans and lapghans.  As you can see, Marsha has been very very busy.  She's been working on these ghans for a good long while.  I picked up a full car load from her.  Seriously, a full car load.  Not going to tell you yet how many.  Will be sharing them with you and counting them as I get them laundered and blocked.  These pictures are in fact as they are laying about the house drying and being blocked.  This large granny square has a center block and works out from there.  Please click to enlarge so you can see all the colors.
AND this one is such a fun bright variegated yarn.  Some teen or adult woman is going to love this color.  It reminds me of roses, which also reminds me of summer and warmer weather.  Which I wish we were currently having, but we are not.  Thus far, we've had one snow that stayed for 2 days before melting.  Hopefully it will stay away for awhile. 
AND, this one is very Patriot with it's red, white and blue.  Rather than a single large square, this is made from 6 good size squares and is large enough for a nice family ghan.
But, don't go away.  We're not done.  I have more of Marsha's work to share with you.  This 4th afghan is a bit more open, lighter and lacy style granny center square.  The colors are very very fall like and remind of falling leaves.
AND this, afghan/lapghan #5, hello Halloween.  This is another center square style granny square afghan/lapghan.  Hoping a family with some children get this one because it really reminds of Halloween, and children so love Halloween.

What a fun variety of colors.  I hope you enjoyed seeing them as much as I did.  But, remember...do come back, cause there's more and I'm telling you how many more.  You have to come to find out.

Many thanks Marsha and please keep up the good work.  Stay warm and stay safe and healthy all.

  2. Marsha's fingers must be sore from all that work! Nice job! I think as my favorite of this group I will choose the second one with the red/pinks/orange. I can't tell exactly the color but I love the look of it. Looks like a variegated yarn.
