I received a box today along with my designer copy of Afghans for All Reasons and All Seasons.  I'm pretty excited because this is the first time my designs have been featured in one of Jean and Rita's compilation books.

Here are two afghans in the book which I designed.

Vanilla Latte Afghan

Candy Box Ripple Afghan

The book is described as follows:

Surveys show that crocheters make more afghans than any other type of project. And we know that crocheters make far more projects to give away than they do to keep. So it's natural for them to keep looking for great new afghan patterns that they can make and give to their favorite charities or their favorite people, or to celebrate an event or a change of season. 39 crochet afghans selected by Jean Leinhauser and Rita Weiss: Afghans for All Seasons has 13 designs themed by color and weight for the changing seasons; Afghans for All Reasons has 12 designs for birthdays, holidays, weddings, and charitable causes; and Afghans for Special People has 14 choices for friends and relatives and even the family pet.

Such a wonderful book!  And, my thanks to Jean, Rita and Leisure Arts for accepting my designs for this book.  Enjoy!

YEAH!!!!! I feel special that I was actually able to get a glimpse (in person) of the Vanilla Latte when it was still in the planning stages!!!! Glad to see it all put together!!!! It's gorgeous!!!:)

Congrats! I love both those designs!!

These are really beautiful, Kim! Congratulations!:)
