And here it is on his chair... I think it looks O.K. on it. Although he may be able to use a new chair... But he loves his green chair.
Next I want to make one for Mom. Her chair is new. It's Beige. But I'm taking Mom with me to go yarn shopping.
I guess when you go on line or to your own craft room... it's still called yarn shopping / hunting. Anyway.. she is much pickier about colors. I think she likes the Dark Rust color that is "IN" for Fall..( That is isn't excatly Rusty looking) ...LOL ...Wool Ease worsted weight carries very nice earthy colors I think she'll like here at JoAnn's. www.joann.com We'll go there. :-)

I bet he loves it!
ReplyDeleteWhen they got home last night... he sat down in his chair and relaxed... It had the afghan draped over the back of it but he didn't notice it...Mom saw it before he did. LOL She made one similar to it YEARS AGO... :-) She loves the colors in it. But I want her to pick out her yarn (colors) for the afghan I'll make for her.. her chair is beige.
ReplyDeleteThanks for writing!!!

Your dad's new afghan looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sandra!!!
ReplyDeleteNow that Dad's is done... I'm working on my Mom's... The colors are so earthy without being drab...:-)
I'll some pictures posted as soon as I get a little more done. Most of the yarn is from Michaels ... The first time I have gone to that store. I saw the yarn & loved it... I'm also using a Pima Cotton yarn ( VERY SOFT)...( from www.knitpicks.com )
