This is my first attempt at crochet. I got the idea from Couch Potato (there was a small one over the back of the couch) I told my mum about it and she said she wouldn't make it for me but would teach me how to make it for myself... I just kept going, it is on my king sized bed, just to give you an idea of how large it is.
This was the second thing I crocheted. I saw the pattern in a book my mum had and just had to try it... it took me about 4 years to finish, I only worked on it in the winter months.
This was the next afghan I made and was for my eldest daughter. She had mermaid curtains and matching doona cover which is why I chose those colours. I made it up as I went, and it only took a few weeks to finish.
After making my daughter a blanket my son wanted one as well. He was 4 years old at the time, so when I asked him what colours he wanted he said "all of them"! As a result there is also a bit of pink, which he regrets now that he is 10! This one took longer than my daughter's.
