I try to be specific and detailed to clarify any areas that can be tricky and give tips along the way.

If you are like me you choose a blanket by the stitch/pattern first and not the size. Did you ever see a stitch you really Love but it for a baby blanket pattern and you want to make a large afghan. Not a problem here….Every one of my patterns includes the pattern repeat so that you can make it ANY size.
