I am all caught up with the patterns now. Thank you for the help. I love these squares and am excited to get started on them. My retina detached in 7 places ( I guess it wanted to dance an Irish Jig ) so had emergency surgery on the 14th of July. It is healing very well, but slowly. I have to wait till I have full vision to do these. Pray it's soon, I'm going crazy. lol
ReplyDeleteHi Liz! I can't even image! I wish you speedy recovery! Take care!
DeleteI've never done c2c before but these patterns are so adorable I have to make it as a gift for Christmas next year. Each graph is beautiful. Thank you for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome! There are detailed instructions and video tutorials for the c2c with the hdc and crisp color changes on the Wildlife Graphghan CAL page here: http://www.myhobbyiscrochet.com/p/wildlife-graphghan-cal.html
DeleteI love all your work , I have been struggling trying to make the first ever graph. I am working the Zebra,I do really good until ROW 23.the green in upper right Row 23 calls for 2greens I am confused that I only have room for one. I have gone over this a number of times with same results. Also need to know what (gh) x 2 means..Any help would be so appreciated.
ReplyDeleteHi, That's right, you should have 2 greens at the end of row 23. You have either made one block more in a different color, or you have missed one block somewhere on the round.
Deletegh= Grey Heather, the darker grey color.
(gh)x 2 means 2 blocks in Grey Heather Red Heart Super Saver from Red Heart Yarns
Ty so much for the help, and quick response. I will keep working on it.
DeleteYou're very welcome!
