Next year's family reunion will be the 20th Annual Family Reunion. We, the family as a whole, discussed doing some extra things as a way to celebrate. I am doing something on my own to help celebrate. I am knitting an afghan. A purple afghan. There's at least two family members who LOVE purple, so I am hoping this afghan will be sought after in the silent auction.
Anyway, the pattern I am using is a zig zag or chevron. I am not using the yarn or colors in the pattern, but I am using the striping sequencing: 20 rows color A, Encore color # 2426; 4 rows color B, Encore color # 7400; 16 rows color C, Encore color # 1033; 8 rows color D, Bentley color # 12; 20 rows color E.Encore color # 1308; repeat sequence. I have enough yarn to make a large throw or small/medium afghan. Hopefully it'll earn some money for the reunion next year.
I have other knitting projects started, too many to mention (lol), but the afghan is the project of the moment. I don't know what else I'll work up for the reunion, but I will work up something.
Until another time, I'll be stitching madly!
