I am an idiot Review by Deborah Horton

I have tried and tried and tried to make this blanket, but I can't figure out how to do a FPdc or FPtr while holding the crochet hook behind the work. My brain says it should be a BPdc or BPtr. I am about ready to give-up. It would be extremely helpful for a diagram of exactly how to hold the hook. I'm quite upset because it's such a beautiful pattern and I really would like to make it. **INTERWEAVE RESPONSE** Thank you for your feedback. We have gone back to look at the pattern, and yes, it is correct. However, you are not the first person to have difficulty with this technique. We are going to post a video tutorial on CrochetMe demonstrating how this can be done. Please keep a look out. And thank you again.

This makes a great afghan..... Review by Sharon Wicks

Instead of making a baby blanket I just increase it by adding additional lattice panel. I get compliments all the time and everyone wants me to make them one. This is a great project to make while watching TV and keep in warm in the winter.
