Need some advice
Hi Everyone, I crochet and sell my goods at craft shows. I have fallen in love with crocheting round ripple afghans.
I need suggestions on how to display a round afghan in a 10X10 craft booth. My oblong ones I just have folded on my table, but I think if I have a round one prominently displayed, it will draw more attention.
Thanks,

I guess maybe you have an easel that you could use to drape it on or a chair back.

What about hanging it behind you, maybe you could use a large hula hoop to fasten it to?

Have you considered taking an end table with you to sit on top of the actual table? That way everyone can see how it drapes down? Another option could be to get the wooden folding clothes drying racks.

Photograph the afghan and have the pic enlarged to a substantial size and hang it with the afghan nearby draped on a chair or displayed prominently draped on the table as the centerpiece.
Kindness begets kindness. Enjoy life!

a quilt rack or make a make shift one you can then display it in a half circle that would give them an idea of what it looks like. HUbby says to make a miniture one large doily size for display purposes only
God will never put more on your plate then you can handle.

Buy a commercial standing trifold display and tack the afghan to it. If it's real large fold it over the top.

put a wall around or behind your booth using pegboard. You can then drape it over or add the pegboard hooks and hang it. don't hang a heavy one though. My sister in law had one connected with hindges so when she unfolded it to a U shape, it stood on its own.
Have a Great Day !!! Kathy
