Hot Pineapple Action

Here are a few photos of the afghan I crocheted for my newlywed friends Michael and Talia:

The yarn is Wool of the Andes - Natural, from the amazingly priced KnitPicks yarn line. The pattern is "A Pretty Welcome" by Anne Haliday in Book 2 of Afghans For All Seasons. I added an extra pineapple to the width and then had to leave the edging off, because I had enough yarn to either complete another row of pineapples or to do the edging, and, well ... Mrs. Swank can be a size queen from time to time. I don't think anyone will miss the edging, anyway.

And just so you realize the way things are at the Swank house, here's a picture of Abby making sure everything is running according to her fluffy little plans:
