    I started crocheting the blanket and have done 9 rows. I’m having a problem because what I’ve done looks nothing like the pictures, I have holes, similar to a Granny square. Any thoughts as to what my problem is?

      I would guess you may be having a tension issue? You could try using a smaller hook and also try doing a gauge swatch to see if you can identify any problems there. – Nicola, Editor

    I wish there was a way to print these patterns. I don’t need a video but sure would like to have the pattern in my hand for future uses.

    Is there a video for this pattern? Particularly the boarder. I make baby blankets to donate and always have trouble with boarders.

    Hi! everytime I click on a link in one of your emails I’m taken to a page to sign up for premium or charter membership whatever you call it with no option to say no thank you!! The only option is to sign up or close the internet. I don’t like that! I feel like I’m being forced to sign up and pay or forget it.

      Thanks for letting us know. We’ve asked our tech team to look into this issue. – Nicola

        I totally agree with what roberta July 18, 2020 is saying. More or less it’s pay up or go elsewhere for your patterns. Not all of us can afford to pay for subscriptions, no matter how good they are or how much we want to.
        Nicola you replied that you’d ask your tech team to look into it – that was back in September 2020 and the issue remains the same. I do appreciate all the hard work you and your team put in but sorry to say the only option for people like me that can’t afford it is to unsubscribe from your emails.

    I’m wondering if this pattern could be tripled to make a larger blanket and be a stash buster.

    Is there a picture of the blanket? It’s difficult to decide to make one without knowing what it looks like.

      Go to YouTube, search for crochet corner to corner baby afgan. You’ll find many videos of people making this afgan.
