Crochet Kit - Meadow Flowers Blanket

This is an easy crochet granny square blanket. What makes it so beautiful is the colors chosen for the squares and the type of yarn used. Coboo is so soft and drapey. This will be a lovely blanket when finished. Almost halfway through making all the squares.

I am a novice at crocheting and this kit was a perfect way for me to expand my beginner skills and yet make a beautiful blanket. The directions are clear, simple and easy to memorize. This project is ideal for taking along when waiting for appointments, weekend travel, etc. because you make each square separately and don't have to carry a bulky blanket everywhere you go. I enjoyed making the squares in stages, crocheting first several of the center floral sections, and then adding the white border later. This helped me to memorize the pattern as well. The colored, variegated yarns are beautiful, and no 2 squares are alike! I am having some difficulty working with the white yarn because it is made up of multiple threads; you have to be very careful not to put your hook through the individual strands of the yarn, so I've had to go slowly and sometimes pull out my work because of the loosely entwined cotton threads making up the white yarn. The final effect is worth the trouble however, and this will be a beautiful blanket when its done!

I was dissapointed in this kit. I found the yarn very difficult to work with, especially the white. It unravels continuously especially when doing triple crochet stitch.
