Teen type afghan...

[Academy252]

I am looking for a pattern that is teen boy friendly that I can make for my son. I want to do something in his school colors but I want it to look masculine and fun for him. Your help is greatly appreciated...

Thanks!!!

Maybe he's not a nerd like me though :lol

Or you could graph out a design he likes. Like a sports logo, or something

I have made this afghan for a boy before. It turns out very nice. (this link takes long to load):

I have also made this one with more masculine colors:

Or how about a ripple in school colors:

What about the striped blanket they are making over in the "Stripey Blanket CAL"? That one is bright and kinda vintage looking, and you can use that color generator linked to there to organize the school colors if you wanted!
