I made this for a Christmas present for a friend up north. I am washing it and will put it in a space bag, then at Christmas will mail it to her right in the space bag!
Its kind of fun and was very quick to make.

Hi,Peggy! Your Christmas Granny is gorgeous. Another inspiring idea for me. I bought a bunch of yarn from Herrschners sale catalog after last Christmas. I saw it and I knew I needed it. Not sure what for but I needed it. I thought I might try knitting again,even though I was never very good at it. The colors I bought were Christmas burgundys and deep greens with gold thread running through. I also bought lots of red green and white with silver thread, locally. I've been crocheting granny squares for years and that's what I really like to do. I happened upon the ripple along a few weeks ago and immediately had to start a ripple afghan. My next will have to be a ripple of some kind with some of that Christmas yarn stash. I'm still loving my grannys but now I'm hooked on ripples, too.
Great christmas afghan. What a great idea with the space bags - I was wondering how I was going to ship 2 huge afghans. Thanks!
