Un Fait Accompli

It is with great pleasure and satisfaction that I present my completed Great American Afghan!

What an interesting and gratifying project this turned out to be. This is definitely one of those patterns that is way better in real life than the sample photo can ever communicate. I wasn’t fond of a lot of the colour choices in the original and I think that had something to do with being underwhelmed with the pattern in the first place. If it weren’t for seeing the afghan in person as a store sample--not to mention Alison’s enthusiasm for it--this is a project I most certainly would have passed on and that would have been a shame.
