My great grandmother used to make a holiday ornament for the family every year. Last year I decided to pick up the tradition, minus the money tucked into it. This was my 2018 pattern, my first in hopefully a long tradition.

This afghan is worked up with a Tunisian Simple Stitch, making it dense and squishy: the perfect picnic blanket throw. This one is a red white and blue Americana theme, but any color scheme can be used! And the best part about it? The next color will be waiting at the end of the row for you, so no weaving in hundreds of ends.
