Josi, Thank you for your comment! I’m so glad you like my sunflower pattern. I think a blanket would be absolutely lovely!! I’m not 100% sure of the answer to your question since I used scrap yarn and I didn’t weight before and after for the pattern. I would guess from new skeins of red heart super saver you might get 3-4 squares (assuming you are using 3 different colors per square- the flower center, the petals, and the border color). You will use up the flower petal color faster than the others because the crocodile stitch is a yarn eater. I hope this helps you. I’d love for you to share photos when you are finished! I hop you enjoy the pattern! ~Caitlin

Love this. My question is how many squares did you get out of one skein each color? ‘I’m planning an Afghan 6 squares by 7 squares for my granddaughter who loves sunflowers and yours are the prettiest!

Sincerely,

Josi Schlie

Sara, Thank you for your comment. I’m so glad you like my pattern. I think it will look great as a little bag!! Unfortunately, Instagram is a platform I do not yet have a presence on, so I don’t think there is a way for you to tag me. I would greatly appreciate you sharing the pattern on Facebook or Pinterest. You could also share a photo of your finished result on the Ravelry page for this pattern. I would love to see your finished result! Thank you again!! <3 Caitlin

Jo, Thank you for your comment. It’s so nice to hear you enjoy my pattern. I’m honestly not sure about adding another row. I would try it as written, and if it turns out a bit small (you would see some curling at the edges) then I would frog it and add another chain in between. It may require some trial and error to figure out. I hope it turns out well for you!! ~Caitlin

Marcine, Thank you for your comment. I hope you are enjoying the sunflower pattern. I’m sorry to hear that it isn’t working out for you. I and my tester were right handed. I apologize, it didn’t occur to me that the pattern would work up weirdly if used by a left handed person. Unfortunately, I’m really not sure what to suggest to help you with this issue. Perhaps ask in a Facebook group? Maybe another lefty could be more help? I wish you lots of luck and would love to hear what you learn!! Thank you again!! ~Caitlin

You could try to use a smaller hook!!!!

Susan, Thank you for your comment. That is a beautiful idea! I’m glad to hear you enjoyed my pattern. ~Caitlin
