Afghan of leftovers - I



There is a lot of needlework to include in this collection.

Grandmom Kwick made this afghan from leftover ends of yarn pulled with a crochet hook through some kind of open weave fabric. It is pretty heavy. And very much not square.
I remember taking naps under this blanket at her house when I was very small. Following the lines of color was fascinating at some point in my life. Some are very short, some go on for more than one row, some recur .... call me easily amused – or, as Mother once suggested – feverish.
