The Spinning a Yarn Afghan for my mother is ready well in time for the C event, the C I don’t like to mention before 1st Advent.

I’m extremely pleased that the two different yarns work so well together. I like the fact that an unloved red jumper of mine has turned into something so useful and beautiful.

What a fantastic project! I’m impressed by the way you kept the swirls such a consistent and smooth width. Did you work from a pattern or just make it up? How did you get it to stay so flat?
The pattern is from Woolly Thoughts (http://www.woollythoughts.com/afghans/spin.html). The centre is the only piece that really needs blogging. It’s made up of six wedges which do not make a perfect circle, only seven do, well when I knit them. The rest is nicely flat. I didn’t block it, just washed it and dried it flat.
