Have y'all seen this book?

I finally got it. I've been wanting this book since before it hit the stands, and I just went ahead and bought it. I know. But I did. So whatever. It's from Crochet World magazine, and I love Crochet World, so you know. Then there's my love of afghans. There are like 44 afghan patterns in this book, of just about every skill level. I just had to share a few I love. Not all of them, just my favorites.

The cover afghan is gorgeous. It's called Falling Waters. It's made with Red Heart Fall yarn as one of it's colors. ILTY also makes a very nice fall multi, so it would be nice in that, too, I think. Pretty, isn't it?


Oooohhhh, that's nice. Love the colors. And the cables. It's called Cables and Colors.

Look at that. Kinda like that round ripple that I'm so loving. I like it in thicker stripes, and fewer colors. I might do that one of these days. Aren't those bright colors cute, though? Can't you just see some little guy sitting on that thing piling up some blocks? It's called the Circus Star.

This one is pretty, too. Ruffly and lacy. It's called French Provincial. I can just picture this in a romantic home.

This one would also look great in a romantic setting. I like that it's round. I like shapes other than squares. This is so pretty. It would also look nice with a baby wrapped in it. Ha. It's a baby afghan, called the Lacy Ripples Babyghan.

This is called Oriental Octagons. Very cool, isn't it. I like it a lot.

This is the Scandinavian Granny. I like it a lot. Those blocks remind me of stars, and the color combination, to me, just reinforces that idea. I think it would look cool done in navy, with a white sparkle yarn. That would really put me in mind of a starry night. You could also do it in a light blue, and maybe it would be more like a snowy day. Either way, it's gorgeous.

This is the Spiral Lapghan. I really like this. Round. That's definitely something I haven't made yet, a round afghan. Isn't it cool. Wouldn't it be cool to take this to a bonfire or a picnic. I'd love to chill in the park on this.

This is called Waves of Fire. I don't know if I like it for the pattern or the colors, but I sure do like it.

There are two octagons in the book, the Fall Octagon and the Octagon Baby. Both are neat. I should make an octagon afghan. Eventually. Ha!

There are several more that I really like, but I figured I had to draw the line somewhere. If you're out at a magazine stand, I highly recommend this book, or you can download it on e-patternscentral dot com. That's what I did. I like the books on the computer, so if you print a pattern or two out to use, you can write on it, and if it gets destroyed, just print out another one. Either way, this book is definitely worth the ten bucks you'll spend on it, there's just so much there. I just posted a few of my favorites. I'm loving this book.

Y'all have a great day.
