lapghans

[Jean Marie]

4 lapghans to see what the sides (beginning and end of rows) look like. The 2nd one is how I thought she meant in the pattern; otherwise I always crochet in the first stitch on each row.

1. Burgundy - I crocheted in the first stitch of every row (which is how I crochet) and on some rows I crocheted in the chain st at the end of the row and other rows I didn't crochet in the top of the chain st. so the sides are like a zig zag.



2. Gray - I crocheted like I thought she meant in the pattern so I skipped the first chain and crocheted in the top of the chain on the end of row for every row.



3. Pink - I crocheted in the first stitch but not in the top of the chain on the end of the rows.



4. Red - I crocheted in the first stitch and in the chain on the end of row. On this one I did one more chain - 105 instead of 104. This is the one that only is 44 rows.

I'm just about finished with the edging on the red one. I stretched some of them to try and get the sides straight.

Jean Marie These are pretty. As for ends ?? If I dont chain at end, you stitch in 1st stitch. If ch at beg of row its to be used as a st and st in at top of ch. Confused, Im not good at explaining. Hope you figure it out. Susan2014

Hi Susan,
I understand that you are saying that if you don't chain at the end of the row you crochet in the first stitch; and if you do chain at the end of the row then you skip the first stitch and at the end of the row crochet in top of the chain stitch.

Thanks._________

I did the edging on the red one and am blocking it. I started doing the edging on the pink one.

I do laprobes and I sometimes put the ties where they can tie around their waist. This seems to help to keep the laprobe from sliding down.

This is the red one with the edging. I had a hard time blocking it.

You call always call the place you intend to donate them to and see what they recommend.

I did the edging for the pink one and the burgundy one and started the edging on the gray one.


The burgundy one is more of a dark color but you can see on the lighter one that it is in two colors of burgundy yarn.
