Crocheting Afghans for Other People's Presents

[naekelsey]

I sent an email around to my friends, and asking them to pass it on to their friends, about crocheting afghans for other people to give as presents for Christmas, baby showers, welcome baby gift, thank you gift and etc, all for a fee.

I had a lady want 4 queen size afghans, one would be for her older, adult daughter...Her daughter's twin brother, also the woman's son, died last Novemeber and the two kids were extremely close. She was wanting to do something special for her daughter, adding a touch of the brother at the same time.

Any suggestions on what I can do, or if I am capable, or add??

Thanks for all suggestions.

Hi. I crochet afghans for our local hospital's cancer treatment center with 5 other women.

As far as what you can do maybe do the afghan for the daughter in a color or colors that remind her of her brother. Just a suggestion.

If you want a copy of the pattern I have been doing lately let me know. It is an aligned shell pattern and is very easy and nice looking. (all double crochet)
