FLOWER GARDEN CROCHET COVERLET Hand Made Afghan Throw!

FLOWER GARDEN CROCHET COVERLET Hand Made Afghan Throw! - (eBay item 310005435423 end time Dec-13-07 18:30:00 PST)

This hand-made crochet coverlet has big white granny squares with a three-dimensional flower in each center and ombre yarn joins and border. It's 100% polyester yarn made by my friend who crochets about 60 mph. She usually makes coverlets from whatever yarn colors she has on hand. This blanket, large afghan or throw is shown on a single bed.

This one has a dainty picot edging on the colorful variegated yarn border of green, rose, white, tan and purple. The three-dimensional flowers stand up about an inch high and make the coverlet look like a garden or flower trellis. It's a sweet, homey item to warm up your decor and snuggle up in for a nap or TV watching.

This coverlet is made of polyester worsted-weight yarn and is machine washable.

Can you imagine this bit of hand-crocheted warmth in your home? See more photos on eBay.
