I’ve been crocheting a long time and have never had this much difficulty deciphering a pattern. Finished the charted squares easy enough, joined them, first two rows around, fine. Struggled big time through rounds 1-4 Then… UGH.
Headed onto row five and rewrote the instructions for myself.. Managed one side, got to the corner and OMG.
Searched the some thousand blankets finished, praying for help. Finally landed on an image on mojo25’s Nature’s Walk Blanket (THANK YOU!!) where I could count the stitches and compare the patterns.
I saw others begging for charted border. Hopefully mojo25’s image and mine may help.
Still need to block and tag.
