Super Hero Colored Blanket Done!

Finally finished:
An afghan for our grandson that loves super heroes!
 It's the Puffy NOLA Sunset Afghan in Super Hero Colors!
Pattern found here.


And the pattern looks like this too:

I used Stylecraft Special DK yarn on this one, as well.
The yarn can be found at Wool Warehouse.
A single strand instead of doubling up the yarn as shown in the pattern.
Our Grandson lives in California and there was no need for a heavier blanket. ;-)
(I'm not sure a heavy blanket is needed in NOLA, either - at least not now!)
 Which super hero colors do you see?

A row of bobbles was added to the black border too.



In hopes all is well with all of you!

Ombre Mitered Dishcloth

Yes, more mitered dishcloths:

This time some cotton stash-busting resulted in this:
 Very simple.
Very fast.
 Pattern can be purchased here.

But work in both loops and change colors as per your preference.

Handy loop to hang off faucet.
Makes a nice gift with an aloe vera plant. :-)
 Or just by themselves:

Happy Crocheting!
Happy Gift Giving!
