Expert: Bea Harrell - 11/3/2009


Question
I want to make a crochet twin size afghan using the afghan stitch.

How many chain stitches do I start with, and how many rows do I make?



I have several balloon cross stitch graphs I want to use. How large should they
be for this size afghan?

Thank You

So, I'm sending you the email address for Amy solovay the crochet guide at about.com They have a library of tutorials, and Amy is good at answering these type questions. Sorry I can't be more help, but hopefully you'll get the help you need from there.

The art of crochet, after 2 decades of being out of fashion, is enjoying a modest come back. I want to help those newcomers looking for a little/lot of help to get started. Once they are comfortable with the process, they can relax & begin to create the heirlooms of tomorrow.
