my first WIP Wednesday

I'm going to try to start posting WIP's (Works in Progress) each Wednesday now.  Soon I hope to figure out the linking back to other WIP Wed posts around the web but for today mine is it as I am a little short on time.

Here is an afghan that I started last week.  I bought the yarn last fall, and even had the pattern I wanted to use it with picked out just had not started yet.  I am finding that its going nice and steady once I got started and I am so very pleased with it.

 

The only thing I am a bit unsure of as I look at it now is the colors.  While I love the colors and they make me think of fall leaves, when I was looking at it I realized it made me think of some old photos of me as a kid...
