This is the third afghan crochet blanket I made. Unlike blanket 1 and blanket 2, this was made to order. Well sort of .. coz I was given free rein to the colours other than it had to be a bright and colourful Queen Size afghan blanket.

I was pretty good this time in that I managed to remember, at least for a few days, to photograph the progression of the work from day to day.
Unfortunately I only remembered for 4 days!
Days 1 – 4
Afghan Crochet Blanket #2 – Finished
The three crochet blankets so far …
… with two more to go.
these blankets are beautiful and colorful and you’ve even made 5! do you make a blanket in 8 – 10 days? you deserve a standing ovation, for speed, for the combination of colors, the choice of points and why did you do so many, how did you resist? these days I’m busy making edges for 6 sets of towels for a friend, with the agreement, however, to make them all different!

Hello Agnese! Thank you! Yes, about 8-10 days … as long as I am not interrupted 😀
I started off with one as an experiment and as a gift. Then I made another while waiting for new yarns to arrive. Then I had orders for 3 more. Hence, 5 thus far.
Hey I am like you … I have to tell people I need to do my own thing and I almost never repeat the same pattern & colours. It gets too boring!!!
