This design is for square #17 of the Traveling Knit Afghan.

Read more about this design on my website.

This design features an easy, 8 row repeat.

The inspiration behind my square was the lakes that are so abundant here in Minnesota.  It seems like all of our seasonal activities revolve around the lake.  In the summer we love boating, fishing, and swimming.  In the winter we use the lake for ice skating, cross country skiing, and ice fishing.  This year, I have been spending more time outdoors and enjoying the nature around me.

I am so excited to share with you all my square for the Traveling Afghan project hosted by Lion Brand Yarn and Two of Wands!

If you have’t heard about this project before, it’s a year long collaborative effort among 48 knitting and crochet designers all over the world.  Each maker designs a 10 x 10 square, shares a bit about themselves, and then passes it on to the next designer to do the same.  Knitters all over the world can follow along and make their own blanket at home!

There is a crochet version as well and although I am not taking part in designing that blanket, it looks absolutely amazing.
