Hi I am trying to creat a graph for an afghan that will be 66 x 90. But the pattern wizard only asks for the amount of stitches across. I need 180 across but I need 198 vertically according to my gauge swatch. When I enter the 180 across it generates its own vertical number that is in the 300's and would be incredibly long.
gauge 3 stitches equal 1 inch horizontal and 2 stitches equal 1 inch vertically.
Maybe there is an easy way for me to interpret the graph that I am not understanding, but could someone help me please?
Thank you!
Neave,
Welcome back, great to see you!
You are a sight for sore
eyes...LOL, however that works online! 
Oh, Nicky was okay, and I told him that. No worries, hon, you guys are
okay with me and the apology was completely unnecessary.
He wasn't being a diva.
Debbie,
Oh, no, I hear you about the migraines!
I get terrible ones.
Hope yours are over
soon.
Dishcloth or afghan sounds wonderful. Also, there still are people who do prefer the larger dishcloths...though I'm not sure why, as they're just so unweildy, IMO. The mass-produced ones from the stores are the same way. Guessing they run anywhere from 8 or 9 inches on up!
The nice thing about crocheted dishcloths is how they're thicker than the cloth dishcloths that are sold in the stores. So that's one reason I feel like large is just a waste of dishcloth, since there's so much real estate that's not used. Maybe I'm different, but I generally use only an area for scrubbing where my hand is, not 9 or so inches across!
Hoping you'll be rid of those migraines by the next time you post.
Melanie,
They are very sweet with each other..
Jamie and Marcus practically grev up together.. She was
only 2 when Marcus was born, so she was still just a pup.. A big
pup, but still.. Jamie matured like a premature born baby.. She was
8 months behind because of her previous ignoranus owners.. :/ Poor
girl..
But anyhow, Marcus used her as a stuffed toy.. From the very moment he could move by him self, he would always go to her.. If he was laying on his blankets on the floor she would lie besides him.. If we went for a walk, and I walked away from the pram, she would guard it when I went into a store (only small stores where I could still see them though).
When Marcus was sick, Jamie would lide beside his bed looking after him and comforting him..
They are still inseperable.. It's beautifull to watch..
When I walk Jamie she will pull on the leash as if to say: "Come oooooom mom you slowpoke.. Get moving, I have someting I NEED to get to.. NOW"..
But if Marcus is on the other end of the leash, she will walk very slow and careful. She will stop at any road and watch for cars before moving again..
It is different with Silver.. She is a bit retarded (LOOOOL).. She doesn't know anything.. She's Jon Snow.. LOL.. She's not that old yet though.. But she always kisses my youngest goodnight when we put him to bed at night.. It's almost like the dogs have chosen the kids.. one for each..
Yikes barbie dolls.. It's not any better.. LOL :p
I have actually never played with them.. Not even as a little girl.. I know that I had a LOT of them, because I always wanted them for my birthday, and for christmas and so.. Bu as soon as I got them, they went into the box under the bed, and never saw the light of day again :p
I also have this beautiful doll pram.. A SilverCross Oberon.. I have never used it for dolls. I have, however, used it to take my grandmothers cat for a walk.. He would lie in it, looking out.. But he would never run away.. :p He was a very generous and forgiving cat.. LOL
Anyhow.. Here it is.. I have this exact model.. Mine is just 20 years old now.. :p
I wonder if, for beading projects, it would be cheaper to go into a store selling fishing equipment and buy the string instead of buying it from a craft store..
And I wonder if it is better quality.. Hmm.. Only one way to find out.. :p Need to go to the fishing equipment store later.. Luckily we have one here in the city.. We have
almost everything.. :p
