WIP - Star Afghan 09162007

I am so pleased with the yarn that I bought. It's so soft and really made for babies.

The pattern is courtesy of yarn-diva and it's so easy I get the hang of it after a couple of rows. I can't wait to finish this afghan and make another one of the different designs. I just like making blankets for babies because the colors are really cute and the yarn is so soft.

I'm still in the look-out for other patterns that are best for babies. This one is already reserved as a gift to my grandchild for Christmas. Perfect for the cold weather.

I have one concern though because the base of the yarn is yellow and Ice is a boy but I think it will work just fine since yellow is a neutral color for both sex. And add the fact that I really want him to have this. It's the first afghan that I'm making and the future blankets in my project list are for charity and with this lovely yarn, I want the best gift for my new grandchild.

I started this pattern in the middle of last week and I've neglected it yesterday because I had Nihongo classes and I had a meeting with one of my closest friend. Its her birthday on Wednesday and sad to say, I haven't started the wristlet for her. Sorry Katz.

  1. I have not seen any of those imported yarns...I hardly shop, though.
    I wonder if the skein you bought is enough for a baby blanket...I like those colors too.
    Btw, what size of hook are you using?

  2. I bought the yarn in Craft World SM Megamall and there's a DMC store in Megamall as well but few in yarn collection though there are lots of imported yarn from DMC store in Glorietta but I think the Glorietta store focuses more in knitting, crocheting, cross stitching and embroidery so you'll find lots of options. I used the 4.00 mm hook I bought from you and it's just perfect.

    By the way, I saw your crocheted bag shown in display in Glorietta DMC store. I would have taken it's picture if the place isn't that crowded. (^_^)
