What crocheters are saying

Gorgeous and fun!

Beautiful pattern with terrific tutorial

Wandering Granny Blanket

Loved this pattern! It was easy to do and fun to watch it come together. I also loved the shell border. Didn't know how to do the treble crochet but Christa's tutorial made it so easy. Thanks much!

I love it! It’s just what i wanted.

Wandering Granny

Once you get to the repeat it so easy and fun. But that how all patterns are get started and then it goes fast.
Love the “built in” bottom boarder. I was thinking wonder if I could do that with other patterns
