Working Together

It's just one small square...

...but it will join other small squares and become a community afghan for a family in need. This family tragically lost a two year old child in a car accident on New Year's Eve. An effort to make an afghan is underway and if you want to help, you can read about it here.

The squares for this afghan should measure 7"x7" and be made from soft acrylic yarn in blue and/or green. I used Caron Simply Soft in country blue and dark sage.

Today I read about another community afghan in the works for a family experiencing a similar tragedy. This project is the first of many for Project Compassion.

We can accomplish much when we work together.

  4. I, too, love your square. Your work is always so professional looking. I got a green one done today and will do another tomorrow. However, mine done look was good as yours. LOL!!

  5. I like the stripes, Tracy. Those are the same colors/yarn I am using. I had a bunch in my stash (the green left over from Mom's afghan).
