What crocheters are saying
Sigh. I purchased the c2c gingham pattern and it is useless- I
still have no idea how much yarn I need. I have no idea the size of the blocks nor any finished sizes.
I guess I will have to mock up these blocks in a comparable yarn weight that I want to use. I am finding it very hard finding yarns in the color and sport weight I want to use and since this blanket is a yarn eater; purchasing too much or too little is problematic. ie; buying 6 balls in a set and cannot return 3 because I had no idea the amounts I needed. Also, yarn is expensive! I tried ICE but everything is bought out and not available.
So my plan is to buy 2 skeins sport yarn which I want a cotton acrylic no pill which I found but cannot order my amounts.
Do other crochet patterns leave their amounts and guage and size not listed?
I have not made this blanket as yet. But have read through the pattern and it seems to be clear and easy to follow. I am looking forward to making this one.
I haven’t made this yet, but I love how much information comes with the directions! I have yarn ready to go!
I am a lefty and so I made this blanket using the authors AMAZING YouTube tutorial. I loved it so much that I bought the pattern (Which is a very easy & simple explanation.) I had already made it before downloading the pattern)
At first I couldn't get my mind wrapped around making the blocks due to me being left handed & starting with the right handed tutorial. Normally my brain can unscramble the mirror image I see on the tutorial when viewing right handed patterns, however, this was not computing in my brain. So in the notes on the YouTube channel I wrote "Help! Does this come in left handed?" I was severely struggling because this was my 1st attempt to do anything C2C. However! Krista was so helpful in personally answering my questions and leading me to the right (left handed) video.
Once I watched the left handed one my brain came back to earth & was abled to confidently make this blanket! This blanket turned out sooooooo beautiful. I made mine smaller (9x9) because it was being made as a baby blanket.
*Side note: This is done using 2 strands of yarn throughout the project and can be a bit of a yarn 🧶 eater! Also extremely thick, would be a good winter blanket pattern.
However, you could make it using one strand if you wanted, you just wouldn't get the cool multi colored blocks effect
P. S. Thank you Krista & the Secret Yarnery staff for making such amazing & simple projects that are so beautiful & complex looking and making this fun & understandable.
A wonderful pattern that I look forward to making soon Great edging.Looks amazing.Great design,Christa 🙏👌x🐨🌏👏
