Vanna-ghan Finished!

I finished the Vanna-ghan several weeks ago. Our son Phillip and his fiancee were here this weekend and I gave it to them to take back to Wyoming. It's probably too heavy for an Alabama winter but should help keep them toasty warm. It was fun to make, and the kids love it.

That is soooo pretty. What size did it come out to? Also, how many skeins of yarn did it take? Those colors are so warm and cuddly.

That is so pretty. The colors just say "Wyoming" to me. I'm sure they are enjoying it.

Thanks to all for your comments. To BELLA: I don't know the exact size, but it's big enough to cover up with. The yarn list in the book is wrong. You don't need nearly as much yarn as they tell you. I posted here http://neisripplealong.blogspot.com/2007/08/correction-in-vannaghan-instructions.html the correct yarn list (or at least what I used). I love the vanna yarn. Can't wait to make someething else with it. --Susan C.
