Hi Sue, I love this pillow, I'm already doing it and I was waiting anxiously today, I ask you a question, what does Billon mean? (DTR 2 CH, DTR, and DC 2 CH DC too) Can I join in the round? Is with half a point or a last point? Thank you for answering my doubts kisses from Argentina
ReplyDeleteHi Graciela, Billion? sorry no idea? x
ReplyDeleteHello Susanne is the translator that I have and translates the page completely, I saw the original page, not translated and I understand, sorry for the inconvenience, I copy what I read:completar con 1DC [1 billón], en los próximos 3 pts,
ReplyDeleteHi Graciela, so long as you now know, its no problem t all hope you enjoy the pattern xx
DeleteHi. Am doing this cushion but would like the blanket option. Also on option 2 it looks like there is another round after round 9 that the spears are attached to? Thus making the shells 3D. Is this correct as I can't find a pattern for this row. I may just be being a bit thick. Thanks Ann
ReplyDeleteHi Ann, the diamond/spears are attached to round 9 the shell st. Round 9 is the last round in part 1...link is there xx
DeleteThis is going to be a beautiful pillow!
ReplyDeleteDear Sue, I've enjoyed rows 1-9, but am having problems attaching the diamond spear infill. Is there a video tutorial anywhere? Thank you so much for these phenomenal patterns!! Nancy in Texas xoxo :)
