| I wish I could find this pattern again, made this about 40 years ago and it is a one piece pattern, all connected while doing the stitch (not panels) as you would expect, but have never seen it again and lost the book in a flood a long time ago.

| I think if you look Hershnerrs has that pattern. I didn't spell Herschners right but I was close. |
|
|||
| I'll have to go take a look, I made that one so many years ago, just can't remember. Put your hands to work in these cubits: Arrangements 101 and/or Hands at Work Share your travels with us at: Travel Junction - Contest |

| This one was called the Heirloom Collection - I made it cause I just love the ripples for the edge.

| This is not one of my favorites but was different to make. The popcorn stitch makes a nice design and something a bit out of the ordinary, which is what I like!

| If I put any of my pics in the wrong areas feel free to move them. Thank you for this cubit. Here is a horse afghan I designed for a friend's daughter.

|

| This is a Spongebob blanket I made for a friend.

|

| This is an afghan that was made out of squares sent by different people. It folds into a pillow.

| Here is the same aghan folded into a pillow.

| Those are wonderful, where in the world did you come up with a pattern for Sponge Bob, that is really unique! And I never heard of a pillow afghan that is interesting. Now where do your squares come from, friends, family or do you have some club? You design? That is a real talent on that horse how were you able to do that, did you draw the photo and then count stitches? Enormous endeavor!

| Spongebob - My grandson had a picture and I took and drew it freehand onto graph paper and Voila. The horse the same thing. And yes then I painstakingly counted every square and every color change. But it was fun. I used to belong to a yahoo group called "Caring Crocheters." We did crochet for charities. We also would send each other squares to see what one could come up with. Thanks. |
|

| Now did you count as you went along? What am I missing you counted in the number of stitches to the color change? What a job that must have been! Put your hands to work in these cubits: Arrangements 101 and/or Hands at Work Share your travels with us at: Travel Junction - Contest |

| Yes. What I would do is draw the pattern on graph paper and then translate it into a written pattern. I would then have to count every stitch and keep the yarn from being so tangled. It is really fun though. |
|
|||
| How in the world do you translate it into a pattern. Put your hands to work in these cubits: Arrangements 101 and/or Hands at Work Share your travels with us at: Travel Junction - Contest |

| Example: 25 blue, 15 yellow, 25 blue Of course you have to remember the turning and go forwards and then backwards. If not you will have to undo once you catch your mistake. I have done this.  |

Better you than me, I have all I can do to follow the patterns I purchase let alone trying to make my own.  Put your hands to work in these cubits: Arrangements 101 and/or Hands at Work Share your travels with us at: Travel Junction - Contest |

 I'll post some more when I get a chance. I've been painting birdhouse gourds with my grandson and he keeps me hopping.   |

| That is great fun. We have 2 that we made, but they are nothing compared to the elaborate ones I see at craft shows! Can't wait to see more. BTW did you start crocheting as an infant lol, you have made so many in so little time!
