Isabella Blanket - Crochet Pattern

Beautiful Blanket

I have been hesitant to purchase patterns because I am still in easy/beginner stage. I loved the look of the blanket so wanted to try. Very happy that I did, pattern is easy to follow and well within my beginner calaber! My blanket is coming along nicely and I love it! I also like that there are a few other colour option examples to use

Disappointed

I used the link to purchase this pattern to ask a question. Apparently, that was not the way to contact them. All I wanted to know is what the finished sizes were. as I wanted larger than the 42x52. After getting no response, I bought the pattern anyway only to find that 42x52 is the largest size. Oh well, I have spent $5 in worse ways. That being said-Row 2 "hdc in the first available space" what does that even mean? I am very disappointed, and I will more than likely not use this pattern. Even though I truly like the blanket it is just not the right size for me.

It’s just ok

The seller is great! Responding to questions right away. However, the pattern is just ok. The bobble stitches don’t pop out very good and if you don’t push each one out with your finger they lay flat with the rest of the blanket. Also, it is a HUGE blanket, even though I did the medium size one I still cut the pattern short because I could already see that it would be way too big for a baby/toddler even though my gauge was spot on. Lastly, there is no instructions for a border so I just made one up.
