Oleva's Afghan

Lest you think there hasn't been any knitting- here's a fix for you.



Also there have been a couple of mittens in the marle yarn. I've come out of denial and realized- with the help of my friends- that the yarn is too busy for cables. Looking for a hat pattern that will complement the mittens from one-skein wonders.

This afghan is a testament to beauty in simplicity.

    Becky,
    There are days I hate my job...I help pick out the yarn for a project and then I never see it again.
