Jan 9, 2012 - Hi Teresa,Great tutorial. I've been wanting to use this stitch. I'm making a ROUND potholder. Can I use this stitch? Where should I increase the stitch - on ch1 or 3dc? Thanks a lot in advance.....

Jan 10, 2012 - Hi Teresa,Thanks for a great instructional video! Love the design and am thrilled I am able to do this. Question: how can I prevent each row from increasing? It seems my borders are not staying straight on the side in which a new color of yarn is added. Help!!!

Jan 17, 2012 - Your work should not be increasing. Is your foundation chain to tight?

Jan 30, 2012 - will it ruin your blanket if you have only 2 double crochets in the begining chain?

tjw1963 Says:

Jan 30, 2012 - As long as your stitch count remains consistent, it should work.

Feb 28, 2012 - How many chains should I start off with if I want to make an adult sized afghan?

tjw1963 Says:

Feb 28, 2012 - This is only an estimate but I would suggest around 225-280 chains

LoveAhiru Says:

Feb 29, 2012 - um sorry to ask but the first to DC you make you say after that "chain one, skip a chain" but you dont skip one chain. Am I just seeing wrong?

Mar 22, 2012 - Excellent work!!! Love the pattern. What yarn are you using in this tutorial? It runs so smoothly and I'm trying it out with Red Heart but the 3-ply is tearing apart. Thanks for your time!!!

tjw1963 Says:

Mar 22, 2012 - I am using 4 ply.  If your yarn is tearing apart, it is possible your hook is to large for the smaller yarn.

Apr 17, 2012 - Question for you ... I have multi-colored yarn that is beautiful, would I have to switch yarn for this pattern? Or can I just use the yarn I have for the whole pattern?

Apr 25, 2012 - How do you do crochet it so striaght. When i crochet, it starts out small to big, and big to small.

tjw1963 Says:

Apr 30, 2012 - Thank you. 

tjw1963 Says:

Apr 30, 2012 - You practice until you get a consistent tension. 

tjw1963 Says:

Apr 30, 2012 - You can make it one color but the design will not look like it does with the color changes.

May 5, 2012 - This is beautiful and I plan to make it for my niece's new baby. I would like to know if there is a nice border that can be used for this pattern, please and thank you

tjw1963 Says:

May 5, 2012 - I would suggest the reverse single crochet or you can carry the actual pattern around the blanket and use it as a border. 

audiomug Says:

May 27, 2012 - Thank you for sharing this technique. I think it will work perfectly for this white afghan I'm crocheting with single secondary color blocks in it.
