She used three different shades of yarn to especially coordinate in her living room at the time. Lucky for me, the color fits into our house as well...

I know how much you must love your afghan. They are pretty handy on a chilly night or lazy afternoon.

What makes it more special is the time she spent in each stitch while probably thinking of all of you!
Love the colors.
Happy PS.
Enjoy the weekend.
I bet that comes in handy as we head into chillier days and nights! Happy Pink Saturday!
I love your gorgeous afghan.. I can knit a little, but nothing so lovely as this...tho I have crocheted several afghans. They are so warm and snuggly. Happy Pink Saturday..have a great weekend.
Oh Joan, that is so special and what a treasure you have. My grandmother knitted afgans like yours and also in the granny square patterns. So popular back then, Happy Pink SAturday and Happy Halloween too, Char
Aren't those colors something after all that time. Thanks for sharing your photos of it with us. Have a great Pink Saturday.
During cold, cold days, knitted and crocheted items are really helpful to warm you up. She made a beautiful one too :-)
