I am looking for a crochet pattern for an afghan or throw with OU on it, for the Oklahoma Sooners. Anyone know where I might find a pattern, or anyone have one? I've searched the internet and in stores, gonna go check out the library next. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Here is a fun suggestion if you like using your computer. Go to google and type in cross stitch pattern maker. You should be able to find quite a few trial versions. Now find a picture of the Sooners Logo. Put it in your program now when it comes up as a cross stitch pattern copy it and you now have a pattern that can be done in granny squares. Just Make a square for each square on the graph. If you have half squares Meaning one color on one side and one color on the other half, The internet also has instructions for making two color squares. Have fun and would love to see a picture of your finished project.

It's probably to late, but I have directions from an old melba swap column, you make up a bunch of different squares in the red and white colors. and sew them together(making and O and U ). I can scan the pattern and send to you if you want. Deb From Norman (11/08/2007)
