The Designer is "In!"
Welcome to My Miracle!
This blog is dedicated to everyone who has struggled over the years to find either the pattern or the yarn for my prize-winning afghan, and to those who have kindly asked about my other designs since I was chosen as the Grand Prize Winner in Annie's Afghan Contest.
If I can be of any help to you, I will be happy to try!

About Me
- Grandma Jule
- My grandmother taught me to crochet when I was 9; I began selling my crocheted creations in High Shcool; I started creating my own designs my first year in college.
Hi Julene
ReplyDeleteI have bought this pattern from Annie's and just got the yarns shipped to me in UK from Red Heart. I'm very excited about making it! Trouble is, the amethyst yarn seems really thick to crochet double stranded, the gauge is way over and the work is too dense to downgrade the hook size. Will the afghan still work ok if I use single strands for those sections?
Kind regards

Hi Julene
ReplyDeletejust wanted you to know that I completed the afghan in Annie's amethyst, teal and gemstone multi yarns. It is just gorgeous and I am now trying to find a good cause to donate it to. When people say how clever I am, I am always careful to pass on the credit to yourself as the designer - anyone can follow a pattern but the real skill is in writing the pattern in the first place! Thank you for sharing your pattern, I have had a wonderful time making it :)
Kind regards
Helen
Thank you for your kind words, Helen. I'm so pleased you enjoyed making my creation, and I think it is SOOO KIND of you to donate it to a worthy cause!!!
DeleteI apologize for taking so long about getting back to you. It's been a crazy few years over here . . .
Kindest regards,
Julene
