This in another work in progress. I am making this afghan to help raise money for the American Cancer Society. We hope to have a 'drawing' for it at our local Relay for Life in May. I could not find a pattern for the ribbon so I created it myself, with Pati as my critic until it looked good. We plan to have 24 different colored ribbons with each square trimmed in lavender/purple, the color for all cancers.
I now have the pattern written if anyone would like it. It is shown below:
CANCER RIBBON AFGHAN

Worsted Weight yarn

Ribbons: small amount of each color for multi colored ribbons
Rectangles measure: 9” x 15”

This is such an awesome project. You did a marvelous job on the ribbons. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished afghan. What a wonderful thing you are doing.
I really like this. I would like to see the completed project. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice! I think I'll use your ribbon pattern to make a pink ribbon square for a survivor I know!
thank you I have been looking for a pattern to make one for my mother. robin
wow how cute I hope it is done soon so I can see it I willalso be making this too, thanx for the pattern.
Thank you so much for the pattern. I am a survivor of 11 years from breast cancer and am also very active in Relay for Life. I wanted to make doillies and/or an afghan for our RFL silent auction but could not find a pattern until referred to you by Smart Crochet. I hope your loved one is doing well and on the road to a complete cure. Bless you and your family.
I really LOVE this pattern! Thank you so much for sharing it! What a great way to share hope! I'm planning on using this pattern to donate some blankets to the cancer institute! Thank you so very very much and Happy Holidays!
thank you for this pattern it is great. I am newly diagnosed with breast cancer, I and my mother both crochet, we will probably make this as a bc afgan. My mother also sews, and recently made some bc ribbon pins. we plan on also making some chemo hats not just for me but others as well.
I was writing to see if I may borrow your pattern for a similar deal. I was asked to make an afghan for Relay for Life to raffle off, just like you did and I am in the planning stages of what to make. Please email me back at monrae@hotmail.com to let me know if I may use the pattern. I will need to know by Feb 1st 2008. Thank you
This is beautiful, I was just asked if I would make one for this year, and was trying to come up with a pattern for a fund raiser.
Thank you so much.
Thank you very much for posting this pattern. As I type this, my heart is breaking. My Mother passed away yesterday at 6:00 p.m. after a long long battle with breast cancer that went to her bones and her liver. I will make this in honor of my Mom. Mom, I love you, I miss you......my heart is breaking and I feel so empty.

Thank you so much for this beautiful pattern. I have lost several family members to cancer, (some of which started with breast cancer) and I as well as my daughter have become very attached to anything with the cancer ribbon. I cannot wait to make this afghan for her. God Bless and I trust all is well with you.
