I used a Granny Square pattern, which is the same stitch all the way around (basically three double-crochets together, chain two, etc.). It's a very simple pattern.Amanda Terohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02755627165871110818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1081546722279849822.post-92143262230237304222017-02-06T11:42:00.607-06:002017-02-06T11:42:00.607-06:00Dear Amanda,
What a fabulous job you did on that...Dear Amanda, <br /><br />What a fabulous job you did on that blanket! I love the colors. What stitch did you use? Did you follow a pattern or just make one up as you went? <br /><br />~AshleyAshleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03080276076664337017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1081546722279849822.post-88902801702595636512017-02-02T14:04:48.343-06:002017-02-02T14:04:48.343-06:00@ Amanda - I'll send pictures when I reply to ...@ Amanda - I'll send pictures when I reply to the email you sent ages ago!! ;) One of the afgans is one large granny square-I was trying to use my spare yarn up- the other one is not a granny square! Haha! <br /><br />I love seeing pictures of afgans people have made and it always makes me a little jealous. I would like to make more, but sometimes it takes so long!!Rosalynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1081546722279849822.post-54345414815851482662017-01-30T19:09:50.545-06:002017-01-30T19:09:50.545-06:00@ Rosalyn - it's hard to say how long I've...@ Rosalyn - it's hard to say how long I've been "at" crochet. I crocheted for a few years when I was in my young teens, but it's probably been ten years since I'd picked up a hook when I decided to make the afghan. So faithfully, not super long. :) I'd love to see some pictures of your afghans! Are they Granny Square or other? I'm thinking about starting another afghan.<br /><br />@ Liberty - haha. ;) Yeah, I was feeling slightly creative that day. ;) I will add the disclaimer that in those three months, I did more crochet than I did working on my other projects, and being that we were sick for a bit during that time, we also watched more movies than normal. I'm not sure I can get another three-month afghan in. But I hope you try it! I just did a Granny Square. When I realized I was getting short of my multi-colored yarn, Mom and I went to the store and found the gray. I saved a skein or two the multi-colored and after I did "enough" gray, went back to that, then back to gray. Just did it by eyeing it. ;) And by asking the opinions of my sisters/friends. :DAmanda Terohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02755627165871110818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1081546722279849822.post-10399525085107578382017-01-26T15:28:03.316-06:002017-01-26T15:28:03.316-06:00*looks at old posts, finds "Paper, Scissors.....*looks at old posts, finds "Paper, Scissors...Cards"* *laughs to self* That took less than 3 months to do? Methinks I might take up crocheting. =) Maybe that would be something I could get my hands to cooperate with. ;) Is there a particular pattern you followed? <br /><br />~ Liberty<br /><br />"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever."<br />Liberty Bluebellenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1081546722279849822.post-59984297862096251562017-01-26T12:53:22.826-06:002017-01-26T12:53:22.826-06:00Oh my, I love it!!!!!!!

I've made a couple afgans, but they're really small.<br /><br />I can't do things when I watch a movie, I have to have my full attention on it. But I like to do my crocheting when visiting. :)Rosalynnoreply@blogger.com
