Another afghan done

Over Thanksgiving, my mother asked me to knit an afghan for a former neighbor (who I used to babysit for) who is graduating from high school this year. Of course, I accepted.

The afghan is in what most closely resembles his high school colors (they are maroon, black, and gold). Something like this could be a perfect graduation gift for someone who is graduating high school or college!

Blanket done!

Nothing like completing a Christmas present for your parents on Christmas Eve. And in front of them. It's for the master bedroom at Cape Cod (the colors match their bedroom).

Updates on the blanket

Eighth series of square done and the detail of the eighth square!



Blanket as I intended it to look when I was laying it out....

And blanket as it looked when I sewed it together.

Just have to knit the border on now!

Seventh series of squares done!
