What most of us regard as just Granny’s old afghan, is the classic Shetland “Old Shale” stitch, which creates ripples of color.  This afghan was made in 1998 for Bill and Maryann as a wedding present.

Together, these folks have the largest collection of FHF pieces outside my family. They have

Bill’s Tan Vest, Bill’s Variegated Vest, the Classic Cardigan, Maryann’s Marvel, the Roseleaf Shawl, the Henley Gansey, and several neckties.
