I’m making another attempt at the star afghan. The last one I made had a lot of boo-boos in it, so that is in the charity bin. This one is going to a couple my husband I both know, and so far so good. I’ve had to frog rows a few times here and there, but I manage to get back on track. The thing with this pattern, which I’m not following exactly anyway, is that it takes some counting, which means you can’t just mindlessly crochet like you could with something like a granny square. I’m not exactly doing calculus here either, but if you don’t pay a little attention, you find that you have extra stitches or not enough. On the up side, when I do pay attention, it comes along pretty quickly. I should have this done in maybe a week or so (as long as I an keep the frogging to a minimum).
