Starghan Crochet-Along * Finally edited * Correct Version in Blog *

[yarndiva]

Hey, that looks great! Just keep on at it and your star will grow leaps and bounds before you know it!!

[snowqueen]

I hadn't been able to work on this in a while and when I went back to it last night I didn't like the way it was looking. So, I frogged it and started over! Here's last night's effort before I went to bed.

 

[Jimmie Lu]

Ok I am joining now too. I am gonna make at least one for the Feb charity blitz. I think I will alternate ble and pink so it can be used for eithr a boy or a girl.

Do yall have a blog button for this cal?

[snowqueen]

There is a link in the "stripey" afghan thread for a random stripe generator and I'm thinking that would make an awesome starghan! Think I will try it next

[RoseRed]

It took a week but it's done! It is 8 1/2 FEET from point to point and about 12 1/2 POUNDS.

 

It started out as an 8 point Starghan but ended up being a 16 point Round Ripple in Reverse Rainbow.

 

Yarndiva - thanx so much for the inspiration!

 

[happy stitcher]

Wow, RoseRed! You've been busy! That's beautiful!

 

Mine is coming along, but I'm still using it as my take-along project. It stays in the car for times that I have to wait, so it may be awhile before it's finished...even though it's going to be considerably smaller than that 8 1/2 foot beauty!

[yarndiva]

RoseRed: That is one hulkin' huge starghan!! Great Job and I loove the colors!!

 

Jen: Keep that starghan going! Your "frog-over" looks good!

[Aelita]

I am doing the Beth's Little Star Afghan and here is what I got so far:

I couldn't get past round 4 of Yarndiva's starghan but that's okay I'll try it again as soon as I get an answer back from my pm I sent to her. I love all of your starghans so far they are adorable especially the Camo one it is awesome, you all are doing great jobs on your starghans.

[Jimmie Lu]

I did 2 premie sizes and am very happy with this pattern Photos will be on my blog soon as I can use my PC at home instead of the laptop

[Aelita]

OOhh I can't wait to see them Jimmie Lu.

[anita47]

These are fabulous! I have been looking for a special pattern for the new granddaughter to come home from the hospital in. This one is perfect! I think she will love it and I know my daughter and son-in-law will too! I'll send pics when finished with new blanky!

[samtaro]

I made a post about mine in show and tell, but here's the link to the pic! All done!

Great Job!!

 

Aren't Starghans addicting to make???

[Aelita]

Yes they really are and I promise my next one after these two will definately be your pattern yarndiva.

[Rock Creek Quilter]

I worked on my Starghan last night and tonight and was determined to figure this pattern out. I stumbled through the first few rounds, especially at the joining sections, but then suddenly the pattern emerged and it is now as clear as mud...and so much fun! I can hardly put it down. My color choice may not be great, but at least I am using up a tiny little part of my stash.

[RoseRed]

YarnDiva - I know this CAL is for the Starghan but I have a question. I have 2 8 pointers and a 12 pointer in the works. Do I have to leave and join the round ripple CAL or can I stay here?

 

I was thinking about doing an 8 point star and adding more points as it elongates. What do you think?

 

~RR~

Oh You finally got it!! I had to add a user friendly version for Row 3 after I keep getting requests for "help"

 

Keep it up and show us a picture when you're done!!

Well, I would hate to see you go , maybe you can post on both with links to your pics?

 

Technically they are both stars, right?

[RoseRed]

thanx soooooooo much!

[StephanieD]

RoseRed, your starghan looks wonderful! It's so bright and colorful!

 

I've been MIA for a while b/c I had to buy more yarn for my starghan. I was able to buy more yarn today. So Yay! I'll be able to work on my starghan some more.

[Aelita]

OOhh I'm glad you put that there Yarndiva now I can try it again when I am done with the two I'm working on. Thanx for doing that.

[yarndiva]

You're welcome. Maybe I will have to put 2 versions in it. The official version and the user-friendly one

[Aelita]

Here's what I got so far:

I am using a I hook and RH ww yarns for these blankets I am making. The one that I make from your pattern yarndiva will be an H hook and Caron simply soft. I may just make it for myself or I may make it for Lucy in purples and pinks seeing as these two colors are her favs. She has a b-day coming up in April.

[yarndiva]

Oh yaay, it looks great!

 

I can't wait to see your starghan...we need to make something for ourselves once in a while, you know

[Aelita]

Yes we do and I haven't made anything for myself lately everytime I try I get asked to make something else for someone. The only thing I made for myself is that poncho I have on in the pic next to my name.
