This applies only to the "Queen of Hearts" pattern available from Annie's for Tuesday June 16th.

 

I love the idea of this ghan but my problem is the large gaping holes that surround the heart motifs. I am soooooo not a fan of gaping holes in a ghan

 

...just curious about what others would do to adapt that part for those of us who are hole-aphobic

I passed right over that today because of those gaping holes. I don't think there's too much you can do to fill them in without ruining the heart look.

It looks like all the heart motifs are done separate and then sewen on. So you could probably do any background you wanted...

I was thinking that... either a V-st or a mesh stitch would do. Might be good to go that way. Since the hearts are separate, it would be pretty with white hearts on rose or rose on white. :dreaming

I totally agree with you Darski, I'm not a fan of the gaping holes either. I was wondering if anybody else felt the same way. Thanx darski for posting this.

I looked at it and thought the same thing. Too many holes for fingers and toes to get caught in. It is pretty and could be used as a throw on something.

The main idea of this afghan would make a nice wedding afghan. Not so holey of course (I don't like them that holey). But maybe something lacy with hearts on it.

I also passed it up for the same reason! But it is a pretty ghan!

I got the pattern but though tif I made it I might line it.

I didn't bother to download it because it said something about a placement diagram that you had to download but then when I downloaded the PDF, there was no diagram. I thought the pattern might not be complete. Looks like it would make some pretty curtains done up in thread.

To me this is meant to be decorative, not functional. Pretty, yes. But it wouldn't work that great if you were really cold.
