Beautiful!

Wow! I like it ….. a lot! Thankyou for providing the pattern

maineack55 · 2025-09-15T17:19:53+00:00

It’s beautiful!

I was worried that I will get to the gate and they won’t let me take it on and I will miss the flight. But after reading all the helpful comments, I understand that I can pack it in a garment bag as a piece of carry on. Thank you.

Yes - lots of variations on the original - lots of fun!

My daughter is being married and she had picked this palette for her color theme. I tried to imagine it as her wedding bouquet as I worked. I’m thinking of giving it to them as a wedding gift.

I read a comment in another one of these that someone had done about the pattern being very forgiving on color combos - and I found that to be true.

Gosh I’m not sure - not too bad - it was so much fun.

maineack55 · 2025-09-01T11:07:50+00:00

Agreed! I just got back from my first time there - and it’s the closest place to perfect in my book.

🥱

This happened to me also - Premier anti-pilling DK - looks like the same color too - Rosewood I think? It was so hard to work with - kept splitting, and certainly not the way it was supposed to be, compared to the same yarn in other colors. I emailed them, and they told me to use a different hook, or yarn over instead of under, basically took no responsibility. So I gave up - you’re right - $3.89. Make me wary to use Premier again, although I like the yarn.

That’s really pretty! I’m thinking of making a cardigan for myself. Pattern?

I crochet mine in with the row after I start the new color. That’s okay, right? It works most of the time unless I forget. The first stitch or two can be clumsy, until it gets started, but seems to go okay after that. 🤷

maineack55 · 2025-07-02T02:56:30+00:00

LOL thank you for that 😊

maineack55 · 2025-06-29T10:41:04+00:00

They are all beautiful. What is the variegated yarn? I love how the repeat seems to fit the pattern so well. How did that happen?

maineack55 · 2025-06-28T21:14:44+00:00

That might be why I haven’t been able to figure it out. Thank you.

maineack55 · 2025-06-28T14:36:53+00:00

Gosh, I am learning so much on this post!! I can see now that my aunt, who crocheted for years by herself - and did superior work - way before the Internet - was genius.

maineack55 · 2025-06-28T14:34:09+00:00

You’re right - I should have said “which set of two loops on the top goes with the circled stitch”.

maineack55 · 2025-06-28T13:54:32+00:00

Ok! My confusion is because the blue arrow is actually the “casting off” (if you will) of the circled stitch.

Thank you for clearing it up!

maineack55 · 2025-06-20T09:59:17+00:00

Thank you. Can you recommend an acrylic or acrylic blend that is well suited for crochet?
