Springtime Afghan

Hello!
The weather here finally seems to be warming up, praise the Lord, and I've made yet another afghan, this one is much smaller than my last, it's still a decent size throw though! I absolutely love it! It worked up pretty quickly too. The pattern I used is called "Earth Awakens", it's from the same book that I used for my Log Cabin  afghan and my John Wayne  afghan, it's one of my very favorite afghan books, there are so many beautiful patterns in there! I had gotten a while back at a nearby alpaca farm, I actually got it for only three dollars, which was a blessing, especially since I've used the book several times now.
Anyway, although this afghan worked up pretty quickly, I took breaks on it too do other projects, so it still took me from February 28th to March 27th.

I bought the yarn at A.C. Moore back in the middle of February, I bought Caron Simply Soft. I absolutely LOVE this color too, it's called "Woodland Heather".
The way this yarn looks after it's all neatly wound on my ball winder is amazing, I loved looking at it!

This yarn wound up really easily too, it's so soft!

The pattern was very easy and a lot of fun to work on! When I first started it I knew I was really going to enjoy working on it. It was a good afghan to work on while talking, listening to music and watching movies, specifically North and South, all of which I did! =)



I still can't believe how much I love this afghan, I'm not sure if it's the color that I love so much, or the pattern design, perhaps it's a bit of both!
Here is the picture of my finished product!


There are about 2,750 yards of yarn in this afghan, about a mile and a half! I love the way it drapes over the chair, it looks so pretty....this yarn is great for that!
Here are some more pictures, I'm kind of obsessed with taking afghan pictures, especially when I can take them outside!

I really liked the way it looked folded on the back of this chair, it shows off the design really nicely!



It's actually another mile a minute pattern, just a different style.



Lastly, here it is on the rocking chair along with some of my leftover yarn! I love when there is leftover yarn!

Now that my afghans are all finished I have no idea what I'm going to be working on next! It's such an odd feeling. Well, that's all for now!

Have a great day!
