Thank you Honey.
It was a challenge but so worth it to see the face of the family member who received it.

Thank you Jean Marie. I have made another one for a friend's son. It's been awesome being able to crochet again. I really like making these picture afghans. I made a gorgeous butterfly that I got the pattern from crochet today. And have made lots of character baby blankets. It keeps me busy now that I have an empty nest.

So, I've crocheted for around 30 years, but I've never done ANYTHING like this. Do you carry your different colors along the row with you and crochet over them or do you add the new color in every time?

If I'm only crossing over a few stitches I would carry the color and crochet over it
but I found it easier to roll up several little balls of each color then just hide all the tails.
Because I covered the backside with fleece I didn't have to worry so much about hiding the tails completely.

Amazing job &question
Wow, amazing pattern and job! I'd love to make this for my boyfriend who is a Marine Veteran. It's perfect, exactly what I was looking for! I am newer to color changing and big patterns so I was wondering if there is a way to shrink the pattern to a throw pillow size..and if so how do I do that
Thanks!
