Today I finished a physical metaphor. You see, I feel a need to add color to my life. So I purchased cotton yarn in a riot of colors knowing that I would crochet an afghan.
Crochet is a form of meditation for me, especially this continuous granny square pattern. There's no counting, though I find myself repeating, "maiden, mother, crone" throughout the creation.
So now I have a new afghan, in a riot of crazy colors, to wrap myself in on these cold winter days as I continue my plans and efforts to add color to all aspects of my life.
That's what I made today.
Peace.
I LOVE it! reminds me of an afgan I knot when I was a teenager LOTS of color.

ReplyDeleteWow, all the different colors are awesome, and the black edge seems to set them off. Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat is a STUNNING afgan! I'm completely in love with the colors and design :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the fact that it's a metaphor for your life-What a great idea!
As you know I love to crochet, but my Mother would only make Granny squares...she made a number of these afghans and had one started when she became ill. After she passed on I finished it and it stays as a reminder of her. This one is lovely.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! Great job!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and not itchy with all cotton!
ReplyDeleteI love it! I can only do a simple crochet, but am anxious to learn to do more, I find it very relaxing too. Great job!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love granny square patterns! Especially ones that are so bright and fun looking.
