"I'm a beginner. What does it mean when it says "after the first row, make all stitches in both loops"?"

"This pattern cannot be accessed in Chrome, Firefox or Edge as of Nov. 19, 2020. All that shows on the page is the name and a picture. Nothing clickable. No directions, etc. This happens on all three browsers. Firefox, however, does give a warning that the page is full of malware. Please provide a safe and working link to directions or perhaps include them here? It is a beautiful afghan and I would love to try to make it as a Christmas gift. Thanks!"

"The link for this pattern is 'broken' and needs to be fixed...the website author made changes to her website. The pattern can be found in her 12" Squares section."

"May I suggest that you copy and paste the picture and the text to a format such as Microsoft Word. You may have to/want to adjust the font and formatting, but in the end you will not lose any of the pattern when you print it. If you would like you may email me at chellmers@hotmail.com and I will do my best to assist you with this process."

"I want this Moraccan Tile Afghan and Pillow pattern but the knitting-crochet.com site is no longer available. This is happening a lot with the links in your newsletters. Where can I get this pattern?"

"The Leaping Stripes and Blocks Squared is my latest twist on this fun stitch pattern! Before, I shared how to make this stitch pattern in rows and in the round. Now, you can add granny or motif style to the list as well! Make a 12” square as shown here or go as big as you like with this free crochet pattern on Moogly! Getting to 12 inches was challenge enough, but I wanted to be sure to create a stitch pattern that could keep on growing to make a full-sized blanket! It took a lot of trial and error, but I did finally find a 4-row repeat that should let you make this blanket large as desired. As long as you end on the same row as I did, you can go right to the border provided. And then add a fancy edging if desired!"
