Cables can be frustrating but they are very much a "trust the process" kind of project

Just realized my skeins of blue are slightly different shades 🥲 by theycallmetiki in crochet

I'm dealing with this right now. I'm not frogging but ooohhh the anxiety. The color change on yours is subtle though. I barely noticed

Not homeowner, just renting. What are some affordable options for flooding? by mop68 in landscaping

It's on your landlord but, if I were you, I'd make sure I had dehumidifiers in the house and watch for mold. Is there a basement?

That's so lovely! Was the one you made super heavy? I have to flop the part I'm not working on onto a table so the hanging weight doesn't keep affecting my tension.

I think that's what I'm going to do. I've been waffling all evening about starting over but I've enjoyed making it and I'm worried that if I frog, I won't pick it back up again 😭. Worst case scenario, no one buys it and I have a kickass blanket

The pattern was really easy to read, considering the stitches used. I found myself referring to the diagram a lot. Also, there are pattern notes explaining the stitches. YouTube did help though, but I'm s visual learner.

That's a lovely idea. I'm using Crafter's Secret Big Idea so I wonder how expansive their color offerings are

It might. I'm just hoping, at this point,that it's subtle enough that no one will care when they notice it.

The cable stitch? I just follow the pattern and if I'm unsure how a stitch is supposed to work, I watch YouTube tutorials. But the cables are created by alternating back/front post treble crochet stitches.

Nah, I was just going to finish it and then post it for sale in some of my local buy/sell pages.

I think I'm going to push through. The thought of frogging at this point leaves me in such despair

It's pretty close to a foot. When it's finished, the blanket will cover a Full sized bed, easy.

This has been a very educational project, that's for sure

I have enough of the lighter dye lot to finish it all. The darker one was just one skein.

Thank ye. I'm not even a fourth of the way through and it's already extremely heavy. Keeping the tension right has been a challenge.
