"Fine and good. But I'd love to know just how one is supposed to lay out a 5ftx6ft afghan "on a towel". I made a custom size afghan for my son last Christmas and it needs to be washed. I used acrylic yarn, so I imagine washing it alone in a front-loader on gentle cycle would work well, and hopefully spin-drying wouldn't harm it (although it is not mentioned here). Heat doesn't work well with acrylic, or so I've been told, so I think I'd prefer to air dry this. But laying it out? Where? On the floor? On the bed? In a tiny one-bedroom apt that might be difficult, especially with children and pets in the mix. Even a small kitchen table wouldn't be big enough, according to these instructions. I'm flummoxed as to where to lay this to dry. Anyone have any suggestions? At this point I'm almost thinking I may have to build something, so any design ideas are welcome!"

"Caps crochet is inaccessible. It's listed as an unsafe site. Would have enjoyed learning a new stitch."

"Question about the border 2nd End calls for 7 Single crochet to make corner and 7 Double crochet for the sides. Is that correct or should the corners also be 7 Double crochet? Thanks."

Elephant C2c Blanket

"This adorable corner to corner crochet blanket would make the perfect baby blanket. This cute little elephant is lifting up his trunk to play with a pretty butterfly - I just love how sweet and playful this image is! Perfect for a unisex gift for new babies or as an adorable addition to a baby’s nursery decor - especially fitting for a safari wildlife themed nursery. What a great baby shower gift this cute crochet baby blanket would make! Links to all the stitch and photo tutorials you need to get started with this fun Colorwork technique! Made with the mini (hdc) c2c crochet technique for an approximate finished size of 36” x 36” square. Could be made larger with the standard (dc) c2c technique."
