    SO incredibly difficult. Definitely not beg-inter

    I have a ton of extra yarn because the last blanket I made, I was directed to get entirely too much. I figured I'd use the leftover to make this. Finally. I tried once just after I'd started crocheting, and failed miserably at it. The only reason I'm still going at this point is sheer determination and because I've finally gotten into the penultimate week. I don't know if it's because the pattern is written so differently to what I'm used to (from many other makers) or if it's because of something else, but I can never manage to have the correct stitch count, I have to use the written pattern, chart, and the video that I keep rewinding and slowing down to see what in the world he's actually doing. I am not a beginner, though I was when I first tried it. I've made plenty of blankets, shawls, and amigurumi, but have yet to (until I brute force my way through this one) complete anything from this site. The only reason I'm continuing at this point, besides that I've got 3 skeins of yarn in it, is that it WILL look pretty (if stiff, I should have gone up a hook size from the suggested...) when it's done. If I ever get that far.

    Loved using different yarns for each.

    I made one with Bernat Pop and one with RH Super Saver. It was a Mikey CAL in pinks for my daughter's Xmas gift. My grandson loved it and requested special colors, hence royal blue with a flower. It was easy to follow the weekly sections and the second one made up in half the time.

    Blanket that easily wraps around your shoulders!

    I made this during the crochet a long, with 4 weight yarn and 3 weight (DK) yarn simultaneously. Both turned out great! This pattern is amazing. Challenging but not too difficult. Use the free video for assistance if needed.

    Study of Planet Earth

    What attracted me to this pattern is the shape. The pattern was easy to follow and loved having the tutorial if I needed clarification. Great texture throughout this pattern.

    Baby approved!

    I made this for my baby niece as a play blanket. She loves tummy time on it and plays with the textures! It was fun to make and was very well written.

    Study in versatility!

    I have used this pattern twice now, it grows easily and second one was in baby yarn from Yarnspirations, so happy with how it will still be suitable as wee fella grows.

    Nice mix of design stitches, clear tutorial.

    I made this blanket for a friend. I am picky about the patterns I make, I chose this one, it spoke to me and did not disappoint ! I used a dk weight self striping yarn and it turned out lovely.

    AI Review Summary

    AI-generated from customer ratings & reviews, and may include incentivized reviews.

    I have some yarn I was hoping to use for a beautiful afghan. The yarn is Sirdar Supernova (brown with cream flecks throughout - I believe #882 "Brown Tweed") Would this be suitable for this pattern?
