An Afghan For Avah M.

While the majority of the afghans I make are for children with Down syndrome, once in awhile I will get a request for what I like to call a "sibling afghan".  I make these in a different pattern, but with the same amount of love and dedication!

A former co-worker asked me to make one for Miss Avah's second birthday and I was happy to do so!

Here is the newly two Avah and her afghan!



I will be available to make more sibling afghans sometime next year, once I get the current ones in the queue made and sent off.

I am currently waiting to hear back from a number of families who have received their afghans so I can post the pictures!

To date, there have been 38 afghans made for children with Down syndrome (including the traveling afghan) and two sibling afghans!

And I have quite a few more to get done, so off I go!!  I hope everyone is enjoying their holiday season!

An Afghan Of Their Own Fund

This fund has been created through The T21 Traveling Afghan Project in order to provide afghans for children with Down syndrome who are ill or facing other challenges.

This money goes towards purchasing yarn and covering the shipping costs of the afghan. You may make a donation towards a specific child or donate to the fund in general.

When you donate, the child will be sent a card with your name on it and you will be informed as to which child your donation provided an afghan to.

If you are interesting in donating to An Afghan Of Their Own Fund, please contact me at chandosjoy@gmail.com
