Great American Aran Afghan...



Mugs by Peg! These mugs have been a big hit with our knitters in the shop...come on by and get a beautiful handcrafted mug to sip your tea while you knit....

This Diamonds with Tails Scarf was designed by Ellyn Copper and knit by Linda W. out of Zohars Sock Yarn.  This was a fun pattern to knit and the yarn feels wonderful around your neck.  It takes one skein to do this project.

Wow!  Barbara Williams knit this gorgeous Great American Aran Afghan in a few months.  She generously re-charted some of the blocks so it made it easier to follow.  This is just beautiful!  She used Cascade 220 to complete this wonderful heirloom afghan.  You know some of us are coveting that afghan Barb!


Beauty up close!
This is the same afghan...however, the color is off and the above is more true to form.

  1. Hi, I am currently doing this afghan ( starting my 7th square)and there are a few blocks that I am looking to replace and see that this afghan has a few different patterns in it than the book. Would Barbara be willing to share the patterns she did differently? Thanks.
