Halloween Ghosts Afghan and Pillow Set

I never thought I would do another Holiday afghan but I couldn't help myself! I guess I have a thing for the holidays!

On the long ride home from elementary school we passed a house with an enormous picture window. This wasn't just any window. It was decorated with hearts for Valentine's Day, shamrocks for St. Patrick's Day, bunnies and baskets for Easter, flags and stars for the Fourth, pumpkins for Halloween, turkeys for Thanksgivings and Santa for Christmas.  Between these holidays they would decorate for the seasons. Every day I looked forward to seeing what was in that window, especially when the holidays changed!

I hope this afghan will brighten up your days the way that window did so many of mine.
