Something fun to start the year off...

I didn't manage to complete the Arrowhead Blanket by year's end, but feeling the need for something fun and colorful, I decided to start a new project this weekend: Frank O'Randle's Tides of Change.  I've experimented with various colors and I finally decided to do something bright and girly, and kind of funky.  At least I hope it turns out that way.

Here's a first peek (the colors are mostly true except that red color is really a deep pink red):


Hopefully the bright colors will be fine for a baby or child's blanket.  No intended recipient at the moment, it's just a fun project to start the new year off with.

Visit this week's YOP thread to see what other yarnies are up to.



 
 
 
 
Warm wishes for a Happy New Year to you!

    The pattern looks so intriguing! Love the color combo you've chosen, I think it will create a great visual effect! I am so excited to dive back into crochet this year, already making some plans!
