I'm knitting fish!
This is a lot of fun. I found this group, BitsandBobs2, and they are making fish afghans. What a fun way to use up a lot of leftover yarn. I have so many ideas for this project.
My first fish was a multicolored fish. Cool!
I got out some camoflague varigated yarn and thought....hmmmm. I could make a camo afghan for my nephew by using this and brown, greens and black yarns. So, two fishies down, 117 to go!
Then I thought about the leftover red/white/blue varigated I have. Add some red, white, and blue yarns and I'll have a patriotic afghan. The possibilities are endless.
It's amazing what one can find on the internet, surfing instead of reading or knitting.
Back to fishing......

Whooo Hooo! Aren't your fish colourful!
Is it variegated yarn?
I've only knit solid coloured ones.
I am going to get back to my own fishing as soon as the doctor gives me permission to resume knitting again. (Next appointment to look at broken right elbow is the end of the first week in September.)
Happy knitting,
Janey

Thanks for the comments. The link should work. The group is BitsandBobs2-SpecialProjects. It is a Yahoo Group. The pattern is under the files tab, called Fishie Afghan Pattern. I haven't put them together yet. I'm still busily knitting them.
