Each square on charts represents 1 sc. Each color on chart represents a different color of yarn. Read charts
from right to left on odd numbered rows and from left to right on each even numbered rows.
Roll a separate ball of yarn for every color change. Do not carry yarn across the back. Drop current color when
a new color is used without fastening off so that color can be picked up again when it is needed on the next
row.

also says don'tcut thread yet it hang, sometimes it hang on the right side not the wrong

[Val]

when you turn you should be ready to pick up the color where you stop at. where are you on the afghan..what row?

[grandmalane]

I AM STILL PLAYING WITH ROW FIVE. i'D GONE UP TO ROW 9, BUT TOTALY LOST CONTROL OF MY YARN. OK i DID THE BLUE,ADDED THE WHITE AND DROPED THE BLUE YARN. NOW i HAVE FINISHED THE WHITE,,HOW DO i PICK UP THE BLUE TO GO ON. WITHOUT HAVING A LONG THREAD LYING BEHIND MY WHITE.

[Val]

do you have 2 balls of blue yarn? thats what you need...you are going across..you will have blue sc till you get to the white sc stitches..then the second ball of blue yarn is what you start with again...in other words you should be working with 3 balls..2 blue and 1 white..I hope that makes sense..hope I'm not confusing you.
