Baby Afghan

January 31, 2010

I can finally reveal what I have been working on for 3 months!



My best friend of 17 years is having her first baby! There wasn't a gift on her registry that could show her how much she meant to me. I had to make her and her baby something. Something that required weaving as we are woven to one another. So I asked my MIL to teach me how to crochet. She taught me some basics and within 30 minutes I had it down. Using a baby afghan pattern, just follow the row by row steps. Anything that I questioned, I just googled and there were tutorials with pictures.


It took me a long time to finish a row at first. As I progressed, I got exponentially faster. I finished around Christmas time and had to keep it a secret until recently.


Basil even liked it. He was jealous that I was working on this and not spending time with him. The yarn and afghan were taking up precious real estate on my lap.


Me and the momma to be.
