"Oh my this Dazzling Dragonfly Granny Square has me re thinking Granny Squares. I don't care to make the granny squares and having to sewing them all together. But.. with this one I am hooked! I love dragonflies and just love the 3D look of this one. After watching her video that is so well done a beginner could whip this up. I would like to make a few of these using a fine yarn and small hook to make patches. I have to give a lot of credit to the folks who do take the time to make all the granny squares and sew them together to make a beautiful afhgan. I just don't the the time or will to do that, but love some of the square patterns out there. There are other things to make with them and I try to find them. LOL Thank you so much for sharing this free crochet dragonfly pattern."

"I cannot get the pattern. When I click on your link I am taken to a page with information on the afghan. Then it has a button for "click here for pattern" which takes me to a page of FOOD recipes! I still can't find the pattern."

"I have passed over this pattern a few times thinking all the triangles are made then put together. Today I stopped and read the written pattern and to my surprise it is all crocheted together. Lesson learned, don't just go by a picture to decide if you would like the pattern or not. LOL Well after reading this Woodsy Chic Triangle Lapghan pattern I'm going to be making one forsure. I hope the bugs have been worked out and that it comes out as sweet looking as pictured. I'll follow the written pattern ans hope it come out.. Thank you for giving me another chance to see this great crochet pattern."

"yes I am struggling with the second square attached, I have watched the video and seems simple but when I get my attached it is not flat, and before I buy the yarn I want to know I can do it. If you have learned anything since you posted this I would love it, thanks or anyone that could help thanks! It is a such a beautiful afgan"

"I was wondering in the pattern if you need to add any rows to the 10 rows that creates the rectangle if I made it 58 rows instead of 50 so it would be a little larger. By the way it is a beautiful pattern and I love it."

I was very young when I learned how to knit from my Grandma; I made a baby blanket for my doll, and boy did it take a long time to make. To this day I still think knitting is a bit more difficult than crochet, which is probably why I love to crochet more. My favorite part though, is experimenting with new yarns and checking out all the fabulous colors. I just love bulky yarn because you can work up a project so quickly, but worsted weight and lightweight are great, too. When I found Serendipity Tweed from Brown Sheep Company, I was very excited.

Serendipity Tweed is a blend of 60% cotton and 40% wool that I haven't had the chance to work with yet. Having two small kids it's difficult to find "me" time, but I can't wait to try this. It's approximately 210 yards per skein and five stitches per inch. Washing instructions are quite descriptive: You can hand wash in cool water using Brown's Top of the Lamb Shampoo and 1/8 cup of white vinegar. After rinsing thoroughly, add 1/8 cup of white vinegar to the last clear rinse then roll gently in a towel to remove excess water; lay flat to dry. You can press with a cool iron if needed or dry clean your product. Be sure to follow the instructions on the label for best results.

This yarn also comes in a variety of colors ranging from all colors of the rainbow: Baby's Breath, Yellow Buttercup, Morning Glory, Lush Blueberry, Blooming Lilac, Cherry Blossom, Nectarine Blossom, Tuscan Olive, Heathered Plum, Peat Moss and so much more. There are over 30 amazing colors to choose from.

After choosing your color palette for your crochet pattern you need to decide what to make. With a DK yarn like this you can work up a beautiful crochet sweater, a fun winter cowl and even a pair of socks. Enjoy the fresh look of Serendipity Tweed by adding it to your yarn collection.
