Sweet Pea Afghan Reviewed by Lizzy Mosback on 2009-08-16 *****
I made this using vanna's choice dusty green (or something like that) and enjoyed the change very much! I also added an extra pink ruffle on the edge and loved the femininity it added! For my niece who's nursery colors are pink and green- just perfect!
