    Red face Granny Square Afghan

    I made on in Caron Paintings in Tapestry and one in Craftsmart in Dusk. After I washed them with plenty of fabric softner and it is beginning to become stretched and fluid which is a good thing. I am figuring out how to wear them. Once I get that down then I will have pictures taking. The Dusk one is still a bit stiff and thick.

    Heather used an old sweater to make hers... got a feeling she is shorter and thinner than me ... so I had to create a OOAK. I'm tempted to make a few in different colors but unfortunately it takes me more than 8 days like she claims she made it is.

    I;ve had the last cardigan soaking in a tube of water and fabric softner hoping to soften the yarn so the stitches will relax more.

    I am so anxious to see the one in DUSK.....I'm sure it's beautiful. Since I've seen the yarn, I am trying to wait patiently to see something finished with this yarn. HUGS, Shelly
