    1. Hi Anne, you will start reading the graph from the bottom left corner and work on the diagonal until you reach the top right corner. There are video tutorials on YouTube. Just search for "How to Crochet a Graphgan with C2C Stitch (Left Handed)".

  3. I have never done a grafgan of any kind when it says the t3 oro4 orb5 is this the number of block's like t3 dose that mean do 3 blocks that color

  4. Yes, exactly! You can see the graph and compare with the written instructions. The visual is a great help.

  5. I've done several C2Cs, but have not used one for graphghans. I understand the chart and how to make each block, but, I don't see how many chains to make to begin each row. Some directions call for 5 chains, others, 6 chains. So, how many for this, and how many half dbls in each block, subsequently? Thank you. ))

    1. You can gentle block them, so that they end up the same size.

    1. Hi, please check all your block colors. You have made a mistake somewhere.

  14. Do you have any videos for making each block? It would be really helpful to work along with one or two of them.
