Question
BlondieeAggiee
Hi everyone.
I've been lurking around these boards for several months now. I started crocheting last year and have enjoying it until tonight. Now I'm discouraged to the point I'm listing my pattern books on half.com.
I finished an afghan for my boyfriend's sister's new baby. I was incredibly proud because the baby isn't due until November, and here it is the end of August and I've finished it. It turned out absolutely beautiful. I used Red Heart Super-saver yarn in red, blue, yellow, and green. The pattern I followed is in Vanna's Afghans All Through the House, it is the Playful Primaries pattern. The pattern is single crocheted blocks, each semicircle done in a different color. It was by far the best thing I'd ever made.
I took it to the laundry today to wash out all the dog hair I'd crocheted into it...and it disintegrated! Yarn was snapped and frayed all over, many of the blocks had come apart. I came back home and cried, still pretty upset now. I guess I should've stuck to cross-stitching.
