Question
Butter
Hello,
I am brand new to CrochetVille as well as crocheting general. I have only completed one hat, but I can understand most crochet things and I love learning new and complicated stitches. I got a little ambitious and decided I wanted to make a blanket and I wanted to do it with the popcorn/bobble stitch. This is pretty easy. (I am using Caron Chunky Cakes). Unfortunately, I've run into a few problem, most of them are beginning problems. Initially I had trouble with my straight edges but I believe I've gotten that fixed. My current problem is I have deviated far from the original pattern I found online and created some what of a new pattern, but i realized i've been adding stitches and its starting to funnel outward (For instance, my first row of popcorn stitches at 36, and my current row has 39). Im tempted to restart while following the pattern exacting. I only deviated from it because it was confusing. My other problem is that the yarn I chose is seasonal and not in stock online or in any of my nearby stores, forcing me to choose another color to continue. The only options are multicolor because I want to remain with the same brand and so I need to find a way to make it look good. My questions are, what should I do? I took this project on to make a more methodical and relaxing project, but now it has become stressful.
Thank you,
Butter
