Ooops, I forgot to mention that I changed from the granny square pattern to DC. So the correction follows (3rd paragraph down) between the ***'s. ;o)
Just have the green bit left to do, but my arms and hands were killing me last night so I didn't get to do any of it. :o/

------ Previously posted - What I did with my Aunt's afghan (that will now become a comfortghan for my cousin and her son) so that it would be more rectangular rather than square, is make two smaller granny squares and crochet them together.... then continue on from there in the granny square style.
It really is coming out looking very pretty. Jeesh, I almost broke my arm patting myself on the back that time. I actually meant the colors are pretty! ;o) I started with the two smaller squares (5 rounds) in Primary color variegated (I don't know if this was called Mexican something or other, or Crayon, or whatever, but it's bright)... then I joined them and continued in the granny square style with 2 rounds of green, then 4 rounds of variegated, 2 rounds of green, 4 variegated, etc, etc until I got it to the approximate size I wanted (actually I ran out of the variegated so I had no choice. LOL).
Then, ***in DC,*** I did 2 rounds of green, 2 rounds of red, 2 rounds of blue, 2 rounds of yellow (half way through the second round of yellow now), and will likely end it with 2 or 4 rounds of green. If I have any film before I get it to my cousin, I will take a picture and scan it.
