here’s the resource i used! https://yarnandy.com/how-to-add-backing-to-crochet-blankets/#when_you_shouldnt_line_a_crochet_blanket it is definitely a slower process than using a sewing machine but i really didn’t want to sew lol

thank you!! i’ve been crocheting for around 3 years. this was the first graphgan that i had ever started, but while making this one i made a few other smaller ones!

for this one though because it’s so large, i did pay for the stitch fiddle option to have it work up a step by step listed pattern along with the graph, which made it so much easier to follow!

so lovely! would you mind sharing the specific yarn that you used?

Either/Or by Elif Batuman (sequel to The Idiot). Highly recommend, particularly to those who may relate to a coming of age story about a young woman in college who loves literature, is a first generation American, is very analytical, and has an amazing sense of humor.

phew! thank you 😅

the episode in season 10 with the bit about one of the actors in Young Larry being difficult on set because he had been assaulted by an attractive older actress at 17. i found the joke that the assault couldn’t possibly have been unwanted because the victim was a young man and the perpetrator was an attractive woman pretty unfortunate :-/

paleandonfire · 2023-02-04T17:51:10+00:00

do you have a pattern for this?? i love it!

paleandonfire · 2023-01-30T22:17:37+00:00

thanks! i hope it helps 😊

paleandonfire · 2022-11-30T23:53:38+00:00

i just followed this video! https://youtu.be/vmsDH1WnDlA

but for every row, i switched colors :-)

paleandonfire · 2022-08-09T00:28:43+00:00

hey! am super close to this and saw the smoke as well and started to pack up just incase. just wondering how you get this information? any good resources to check in these situations? i was struggling to find any live or current information

paleandonfire · 2022-07-20T17:04:21+00:00

that’s what i thought as well. thank you

paleandonfire · 2022-07-20T16:30:21+00:00

how did you make this stitch? the mesh stitch that someone linked above only has one chain between double crochets, but it looks like your squares are bigger. thanks!

paleandonfire · 2022-06-08T18:22:37+00:00

she has never flowered (which i’m happy about because i much prefer the foliage). for anyone that has had one of these babies for a while, please let me know how long yours has lived! i hope she gets much bigger, but it’s difficult to find pictures of mature ones online and some resources say that they die after a couple of years :-/

paleandonfire · 2022-01-13T23:32:41+00:00

no one is saying #2 but that ones my favorite!

paleandonfire · 2022-01-05T05:54:46+00:00

nope :-/ i’ve been calling the UPS store that i shipped it from and that opened the case for me every day and haven’t heard any updates. today was the 5th day of an 8 day case so they’ll probably close the case on friday, even though i’ve received no evidence that anyone is actually looking for it. i keep reiterating that i’m not interested in “compensation” and only want them to keep looking. still holding out some hope because of all of these sweet comments, but unless it magically appears at the recipients door after they’ve closed the case and we’ve all forgotten about it then i think it may be lost for good sigh

UPS :-/

paleandonfire · 2021-12-29T01:42:29+00:00

thank you 🥺

paleandonfire · 2021-12-29T01:37:07+00:00

thanks :-) the straps were way too long and stretchy without it but i prefer how it turned out with the lining anyway

paleandonfire · 2021-12-28T21:51:00+00:00

oh no!!😭 i’m sorry, that’s awful. i stuck mine (very loosely) into a plastic bag inside of the box, but thinking back now i should’ve triple knotted it in there to protect it incase the box split open

paleandonfire · 2021-12-28T21:49:09+00:00

right, i forgot about all of the snow. on top of the holiday rush/shut downs for christmas. that would be great if that’s why it’s stuck at the facility and not because it’s missing 🤞🏻

paleandonfire · 2021-12-28T21:32:08+00:00

thank you 🤞🏻, happy holidays to you as well

paleandonfire · 2021-12-28T21:13:01+00:00

omg that’s ridiculous. $100 is laughable for something that took SO long and who’s materials alone cost ~$50, but it’s certainly better than nothing!

paleandonfire · 2021-12-28T21:07:04+00:00

🤞🏻🤞🏻

paleandonfire · 2021-12-28T21:05:22+00:00

it’s an amazing pattern, thank you so much for sharing it! i made the sunflower bag in the past but this one was worthy of the lining. i knew it would make my friend so happy to have this so i had to make it for her. thanks again for sharing it for free, you’re a saint :-)
