Newest Afghan project: scrap afghan

Here is my lastest crochet project. I am proud to say that I didn't buy any yarn to make it. I used yarn left over from other projects. most of it was from my songbird afghan. It's called a Yo Yo pattern as it is reminiscent of a fabric yo yo. It's also a pain to make all those little pieces, tuck in the ends and put them together. There were about 950 of them. But I like the way it turned out tin the end. I made the edge a little rippley for fun. It's more of a throw size.


This is the back, but I like it quite well too. The white is more prominent. This is the first time I made a scrap afghan with wite as the background color. I like it. Most are made with black. This seemed appropriate since I was making it in the summer.

Not sure what I am going to do with it yet. I may enter it in the fair with the last one.

If you're really struggling with what to do with it, you could wrap it up with Christmas paper and put it under our tree this year :)
