Star Blanket...a bit bigger than for baby

Isn't it lovely that she has such faith in your ability to do this and that that faith is not unfounded. Way to Go girl!!!!

I like that look. Very dynamic in those colours.

I really need this "kick in the pants" I started a star blanket for my nephew before he was born; he will be 1 in April... <sigh> I am determined to get this done for his birthday.... I wanted to give it to my sister when he was born....

I'm still working on mine here and there too. It's keeps getting shoved to the bottom of the pile cause of other projects with deadlines.

Well I finally got the time to take a picture since Christmas

I was not able to finish it before Christmas so my daughter ended up getting it with a skein of yarn

She loves it

Colors are Black Homespun and Fushia Homespun\

 

Those seem to be her colors lately - these are also the color she dyes her hair.

I recently purchased some camo yarn in different shades from E-bay. I want to make several of the star patterned afghans for our local Army base as they will have a big deployment in April and I know many Mom's will be delivering while their husbands are gone. Thought this might be a way to "link" dad to baby -- sure wish I could find some pink camo yarn for little girls.

I want in! i started this blanket off of a post over at craftster but I'm waaaaaaay stuck

 

So I am starting this agaon.

I tore it out once and am abut to again

It's round 3 I have the issue with

"Round 3: Sl st in next st, ch 3, 1 dc in next dc, shell, *dc in next 2 dc, sk 2 dc, 2 dc, shell. Repeat from * to 5th point. 2 dc, sl st in 3rd ch of beginning ch to join. (50 dc/5 ch2 spaces) "

 

So after I sl st into the chain from last round I sl st into the next dc right? Then I chain 3 and after that I dc in the VERY NEXT dc right? After doing that I shell into the next dc??? It seems like a lot of stitches I'm missing if I skip over them and shell in the next ch 3 space. That's when I start the dc 2 sk 2 then shell process right?

I think this is where I lost it last time.
