Green acres is the place to be
Farm living is the life for me
Land spreading out,
so far and wide
Keep Manhattan,
just give me that countryside.
It was a fun little show, pretty corny and predictable but cute, entertaining, and non violent. Anyway, Green Acres is what came to mind as I was designing this afghan. I also thought of Grape Vine? But thought the green was more abundant and obvious then the purple. Probably will edge and join with dark green.
If you see any of your squares here, please sing out. Most of these are crocheted, but there are some knitted squares. While not all are the same size, they're not too far off.
****For all people in google+ and Disgus Blog folks, I've written about problems I'm seeing all over the net in the last week to 10 days. If you're losing visitors, and comments and wonder what's going on, PLEASE read this post. And respond, there's been much discussion and I'm trying to help folks by getting the word out. If you're considering joining google+, I would encourage you to hold for awhile until the fix for this problem is more at hand****
As you know May's focus is hats. Please review the information in the hat tab across the top of the blog to be certain you're up to date regarding sizes, colors, fibers etc. needed to make our donations meet the need.
*Oh and please remember to attach a size tag to ALL hats. Use string, yarn, safety pin. Labels don't have to be fancy folks, but knowing the size is really needed by all the shelters, as well as schools to know how to store and distribute to the appropriate people in need.
