Sewing Saturday ~ Sunny Blue Hawaii 2 ~ 5/21/2022

I'm going to be featuring my sewing, crocheting and crafting projects on Saturdays.  Some weeks this will include a finished project, a FNSI or FNWF or just a WIP.

~~~~~~~~

Since finishing Adalynn Audrey's Baby Blanket, I needed a new project to work on while sitting on the deck or watching TV on the couch/bed.

I remembered an afghan I had made and absolutely adored the colors.  I called it Sunny Blue Hawaii and you can see the finished post from 2015 HERE.  It was gifted to a friend in the Summer of 2015.

I decided to make an afghan with Sunny Blue Hawaii as inspiration.  I'm calling it "Sunny Blue Hawaii 2"!  Original, right?

The colors are basically the same but I'll be switching up the granny squares just a tad.

The squares are a bit smaller and alternate colors.

The plan, for now, is to make the afghan 6 squares by 8 squares.  I'll then add borders depending on how much yarn I have left

Here's a small sample of what it will look like.  I have 8 squares completed so far.  I have 40 more to go!

I have a friend in mind to gift this to but I'm not sure if she likes these colors.  I'll find out and let you know :)

Make it Monday ~ Sunny Blue Hawaii Completed! ~ 7/13/15

This was the beginning of my Sunny Blue Hawaii.  You can see more before pics HERE.

And here it is in all its completed glory!  I LOVE IT!

I connected the granny squares with a white single crochet.

Then I added a granny stripe border that seemed to take forever but really sets off the squares.  I ended with a scalloped edging.

I'm not sure who I'm going to give it to yet, so for now it will go in my "finished" cupboard with my Weekend in Stockholm and Stained Glass Granny.

 So, what do you think?  Do you like how it turned out?

Please leave me a comment with a link so I can return the visit!!
