The color pallet was inspired by my soul crushing love for this guy.
I’ve completed another crochet project. It’s taken me two years and 1400 miles. I started this crochet afghan before we left Texas, over a year and a half ago. This was one of the few necessities that made it into our cars and not the moving van. (read about the other necessities HERE)
I was working with small balls of yarn (the explanation for that is below) so my granny squares consist of random size and color circles squared off in red. I joined my squares in columns of eight and then joined two columns to each other leaving me with four sets of two columns. I edged each column pair in the off-white and then joined the four column pairs together with off-white. The project was finished with another couple of rows around the whole piece.
Ebb and Flow Afghan

Inspiration piece by Joleen Kraft
The reason for the small balls of yarn is that I saw this gorgeous ebb and flow afghan by Joleen Kraft on Ravelry and thought surely I could wing it and figure it out. No…No, I couldn’t. Buy the pattern and save yourself much unraveling, crocheting, and re-unraveling. You can find the pattern HERE. Well worth the $5.
Here are some of the photos I took when I was still feeling optimistic about the ebb and flow project.
