Thank you so much for taking the time to post this pattern. I have no idea how to crochet (I&#39;m a knitter) but I&#39;m going to learn so I can make this sucker. GAH. it&#39;s SO COOL.Kestrelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05357135189499937542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-40706606256521939042009-05-27T19:52:01.914-04:002009-05-27T19:52:01.914-04:00tokyokitty: Glad you like it! No, you do not do it during the chain stitch. You attach the FG color as you start the first row of each square. Yes, you're right, you pull it through all the BG stitches. Just hold the FG color along with the BG color, and just make the crochet loop around the FG color, so that the FG color is in the middle of the BG crochet stitch. I'm not sure if I can explain it any clearer than the pictures and explanation in the pattern :/ Maybe you could try it with a swatch until you get used to it?? :)Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11373645191077661561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-45374625789715178762009-05-27T19:04:29.926-04:002009-05-27T19:04:29.926-04:00Hey there! I absolutely love this blanket!! I'm making one for my mom now and I was wondering exactly how you carry the FG color through the square. Maybe I just don't get it but do you carry it through the chain stitches too? Do you pull it through each stitch as you're doing the BG color? Maybe I'm just thick but this color changing is what's throwing me off...tokyokitty161http://openid.aol.com/tokyokitty161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-58929111816401688302009-02-21T19:45:00.000-05:002009-02-21T19:45:00.000-05:00I just wanted to tell you that I'm in the middle of this... it's taking forever, but my best friend and her kids are Avatar-obsessed but crochet-challenged. I think this is the biggest hand-made Christmas gift I've ever made! Hopefully I'll get it done before next Christmas. ;-) But kudos for a clear tutorial and awesome charts. It's all very well thought-out, and turning out beautifully (I'm halfway through Water and 3/4 through Earth).Beccanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-20576875719717414052009-02-13T00:41:00.000-05:002009-02-13T00:41:00.000-05:00This is too cool!

It was just how the water pattern worked out. I think that was the first square I did, so that's why it didn't quite match up with the others. But I don't notice a difference, and I think the blanket is so big anyway that the absence of just the one stitch length is incidental.Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11373645191077661561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-30527412414104431592008-11-14T15:19:00.000-05:002008-11-14T15:19:00.000-05:00i was wondering if on the pdf for the water symbol, you meant to have 95, instead of 94... and will it make a difference if it has 95 stitches instead of 94?Nicolenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-89564781981035321062008-11-11T00:04:00.000-05:002008-11-11T00:04:00.000-05:00It's beautiful!!sanhitanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-40089083398846438442008-10-29T10:18:00.000-04:002008-10-29T10:18:00.000-04:00thank you so much for these charts.

Well you could always try to learn again, one day, and then come back to this. :) I personally think crochet is easier to understand than knitting, but I enjoy both.Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11373645191077661561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-8802129138136588002008-05-17T08:37:00.000-04:002008-05-17T08:37:00.000-04:00And I suddenly wish I had learned to crochet instead of knit, haha.

That's one of the points that the WGA keeps giving up in the negotiation attempts. <BR/><BR/>I used to buy Spongebob themed things... not anymore since I read that about Nickelodeon.Megalionhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16728988423240566112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211010005834591793.post-54703794072383304802008-02-05T23:40:00.000-05:002008-02-05T23:40:00.000-05:00Right, and I was worried about even just posting it publicly for the copyright reasons.
