I just love the fall. My husband and I were out last weekend running errands and the city was alive with the most incredible colors. All I can think about is how these colors would look in something I crocheted.
I got up this morning and found my trusty online "Michaels" email newsletter in my mailbox. Maybe I did not notice it before, but they have a place where you can create a printable shopping list, which I did, and I have it when I go to the store. This week in particular they are having sales on Red Heart yarn, Lion Brand yarn and Patons Yarn. A winter yarn extravaganza! This is a sale that can't be beat. You do have to sign up for the service but when they have a yarn sale this good I am right there. I have 4 Michaels in my area so I can usually find what I need for any project. I love red heart to make my favorite afghan pattern. It is verigated with solid borders. Very easy pattern. It is one of those patterns you look at once and just keep crocheting until you decide it is big enough. I made one for my husband, becuase he is so tall, and it stays on his chair especially in the winter.
