Chicago Cubs graphgan

This is the very first multicolor graphgan I created. This is also the largest item I've ever crocheted!! For the record it's approximately 30,000 stitches!! 😱 

Anyway, I used a photo of the cubs logo and turned it into a graph, then started writing line by line what every single stitch is. (Color and how many per line)

This is obviously a non blocked photo, just laid out on our living room floor. I'd love to block it and take a new photo, but getting it away from my husband long enough to do that may be more difficult than just making another one. 😂

I used a rope type border.. it was the only non girly border I could find.. 

If you like my design and would like to purchase a copy of it, here's the link. 

Chicago Cubs afghan, this is the written pattern, row by row, stitch by stitch, color by color. I am willing to share the graphs for this with anyone that purchases the written pattern. I also included the amount of yarn needed to achieve this blanket. 😘 your welcome.. The pattern also includes detailed instructions for this border. 

I've been considering resizing and making it into a baby blanket (newborns love baseball, right?)😂 Both the pattern and blanket will be for sale once it's complete. 

Thoughts? Suggestions? Any feedback (good or bad) would be appreciated.

I saw some clip art that closely resembled this and decided to attempt to recreate it into a crocheted item.

(Reverse shell border)

The pattern and links will be available soon, but I'm so very proud of how this turned out. This is only my third pattern designed, written and tested. 

I do plan to make this again & possibly increase the width. I guess we will see. I tend to not enjoy repeating patterns once I've made them.. 😂

What do you guys think of this one? I'd love to hear thoughts, opinions, suggestions.. please be polite.. 

Intro...

Welcome!

I really wanted a place that I could share my newest work in progress, possibly get some feedback from those browsing (not just family & friends like Facebook) and maybe, just maybe sell a pattern or item made. I am not doing this blog just to earn money, its really more for some feedback from strangers!!! So I ask you, please be polite, but honest. If something is horrid, for the love of humanity, TELL ME!!!!

Until later...
