You helped me fix it! @CheerBear

Looks abit atrange of an angle. The yarn kept falling off the table but you can see it. I mustve been placing the slip stitch in the wrong place. When i do the next set of trebles itll open the gap more like hers

Woohoo @outlander 🙂 That looks great and exactly the way the pattern goes. Your stitches again are so neat!

Go you 👍❤😊

[outlander]

Thank you for your help and encouragement @CheerBear ❤

[CheerBear]

You're welcome @outlander 😊 Thanks for sharing your adevnture with us!

@CheerBear do you reccomend a youtube clip that shows how to change colours? One thats easy to learn off?

[CheerBear]

Here's one @outlander. It's how I change colours and what I find looks the best. At the start of the video you'll find how to change colour at the end of the row. At about 6:10 you'll see them change colour in the middle of a row (which is the same idea).

The video is by "Bella Coco" and they have so many different tutorials and hints and tips. All of the videos I've seen by Bella Coco are helpful, clear, slow enough to see etc. 

😊

(You're not using your yarn cake anymore?)

Cool thanks @CheerBear ill take a look.

I need to buy another yarn cake. The purple got too tangled on it and had to cut it so ill buy a new one use that roll first then continue on as itll continue on in the same pattern. Not sure if that makes sense lol.
Ill use the one im doing now as practice ones so like learning this technique and colour changes (unless it looks ok then ill have 2 blankets going lol)

@CheerBear ive got so many colour patterns in mind i dont know where to start 😂 part of that is i need to master the colour changes first though.

[CheerBear]

Haha @outlander the struggle there is real 😆 How cool is it to have too many ideas of what you could do though?!

I like yarn cakes as they take away that need to think of what colour next, which I can ponder for way too long sometimes. I'm not a fan of the price of them though. 

I don't think I've shared this one but what you're doing now reminded me of it. It's from a rainbow cake I picked up while I was at the break place as a reward for something difficult I did. Like it sounds you may have done, I couldn't settle on what to do with it and started a few things but wasn't happy with them (I played frog lots 🐸!). In the end I made this little shawl thing for one of mine which they love snuggling up with.

It's made with one cake and a similar kind of pattern with the stitches as your granny square. Totally doable with where you are now. 

Just throwing another idea out there 😝 Have you mixed crochet and pinterest together yet? That has baaaad news written all over it 😉😆

Hope you enjoy playing with your project and learning (such a great thing to do) ❤
