    I adore you and your tutorials. This one left me wanting more information. I would have liked to see how you handled the middle of the third join. You stopped just short of that. I would have liked for you to explain the full layout a little more. How do the blocks line up relative to each other? How to measure the blocks to approximate how many you need for the size blanket you want? You usually explain more. I love this type of almost quilt blanket.

I guess just keep making these 3 diamond sections…then how do I join them all together? I would like to have an idea how to keep going… Thanks for your awesome directions!!!

  • @alicedamron1341

    Hi Fiber Spider....I was wondering if you would show how you put the diamonds together to make the illusion pattern. I can kind of tell by looking at the finished project ...but if you could explain which colors to put beside each other. I appreciate this entire video and all the hard work you put into it. thank you

    • @welshaccount9026

      Hope this helps. This is how I mapped this out and I am making right now. Hope this comes across clear.
      First do all the light color blocks in full ,do all 4 rounds. I then linked them on the tips with stitch markers to make a long 'chain'. This holds them in place as I work the medium and dark shades in the join as ypu go method.
      I then start with the darker color working up the final round on all sides but one, which I then do as the join as you go against the lightest color edge. I move onto the medium color where I do 2 sides then join as I go to the dark as well as the light sides. So now a single block is formed. For the next block set-Again start with dark shade but this time youll do final round on 2 sides and join as you go along both the medium shade side and top light side. The medium will be the same as first block.
      In the second and beyond rows I do same method other than needing to do the join as you go along three sides this time not just two ...the bottom(to light shade) will be joined as well.
      Basically if you start with full blocks on the light shade you can work in rows joining them all as you go. The half blocks would be on the sides.
      Really hope this made sense and helped❤

    Can’t get the 3rd join grr……it’s the only side you didn’t video assuming, I guess, that everyone knew what you were talking about. I have tried so many times to connected the 2nd half of the last triangle but it just doesn’t work out. I really do love this block but have unwillingly abandoned it. So annoyed as I was going great guns until the centre last connection (dark Green) I don’t think being 83 years is helping… brain power very low that’s why following the video was great x

    • @lusatzger5921
      @lusatzger5921 3 месяца назад

      I agree. I ran into the same stumbling block. The dark triangle is off by one side. To connect it you need to end half way through on the Treble increase part. But I cant figure out how to start it so the 2 unfinished sides that you connect are free. Would love further guidance from Fibre Spider on this.

      It really depends on various factors - yarn weight, hook size, gauge, and how big you make your initial diamonds. Too many for me to be able to give any kind of definite answer. Go for it and have fun 👍
