You will SEE an afghan I wanted to make but the seller lost all the patterns so reneged on the sale. PLEASE help me find this afghan pattern or tell me any types of patterns you see in it that I can approximate.  I am a novice but am determined to make this afghan eventually as I practice each type of stitch.
Seller said she had found this pattern in a calendar or a magazine. PUH --LEEEEZE help!! Pass this on to others if you want to...
Thank you so very much for your effort!!!

Answer
Hi Mary,
I don't have that pattern or know where to get it.  Apparently it's cut out of some needlework magazine.  I've bought "pages" before also.

However, I found this free pattern online.  It's very similar, a sampler type of pattern made of granny squares.  I hope this is substitute for you.

Traditional Crochet and Filet Crochet (not clothes) I do more thread crochet than yarn.

Experience

I have been crocheting for over 50 years. As a child growing up in New Orleans, LA, I had aunts and older cousins who taught me, but now they are all gone and sadly, there is no one who crochets in my area. I hope to be able to meet fellow crocheters through this website, and I'd be delighted if I could help someone answer a question. I'm sure I'll be asking my share, also. I specifically enjoy doilies and afghans. I really like designing filet crochet. I don't make clothes, other than hats and scarves.

Education/Credentials
I learned as a child in the 50's from aunts and older cousins.
