  • This video is for the Easy to make Sunny Day Shell Afghan. Let me show you step by step how to make this beautiful afghan.
    The yarn that was used for this design was a limited edition yarn and is complete sold out and is gone. I have listed some other yarns you may enjoy trying for this pattern. I have links below where you can view the different yarns.
    To purchase the Written PDF Pattern click here: creativegrandm...
    The afghan is a wide afghan measuring 56 inches wide by 62 inches long.
    Afghan can be made smaller so you can use less yarn.
    Use the stitch multiple of 4 plus 2.
    Ideas for substitute yarn you may be interested in using.
    Lion Brand Mandala Ombre, this is the closest yarn to the one I used.
    Click here: shrsl.com/2yeu3
    To make the same size you would need 13 skeins.
    Premier Puzzle Yarn, this is also a beautiful yarn to use, click here
    bit.ly/2S967DF
    To make the same size you would need 14 skeins.
    Red Heart Ombre, this is a little thinner yarn, you would have to drop your hook size down to a size I-9 (5.5 mm) hook the afghan would be slightly smaller. Click here: www.joann.com/...
    This yarn is also available at walmart and most craft stores. y
    You would need 9 skeins.
    I always suggest if your not sure about the colorway or the yarn order 1 skein and work up a sample to see if your going to like it before purchasing the required amount of yarn. That is a lot of yarn to buy for a project this size and then not like it.

    Hello Creative Grandma! I'm a big fan of your channel! I'm so happy how detailed you made the instructions for this Afghan! You made sure everyone could follow the pattern in the way you mentioned where to put the stitches and slowed it down so it was easy to follow. That'd what I've learned about being a crocheted. Patience is key! Be patient and let the project flow and relax and enjoy it. You may be tempted to rush because you want a project fast, but you have to pace yourself and slow it down. That's a lesson I'm still getting used to. LOL! I love your channel. Keep the awesome projects and giveaways coming!

I'm actually quite proud of myself. My poor hubby might not be as happy because I have a new addiction and have so much yarn. This is my next project and I can't wait. So again, thankyou

I also wanted to say I saw the video where you tallked about cutting your hair. I think you have such beautiful hair. Mine is an inch or two shorter than yours and a little whiter. I just got my past covid-19 haircut. It had gotten down to my waist. So, it's a big change for me but I'm getting used to it. Take care my friend, God bless and stay safe. Jan
