I started with smaller hook size 10, my hands would get sore quickly, so I switched to a bigger size hook. <br />Because I didn't follow the pattern exactly, my motifs are smaller then the ones in the pattern. As a result, I will need 24 of them (4 by 6) instead of 15 (3 by 5).

I only used the graph as the guide and didn't follow the written pattern (back when I started this tablecloth, I couldn't even understand the written patterns that well). I started with ch 8 for ring. <br />Also as I look at the written pattern now, I see that my "meshes" and "blocks" were smaller. I used (tr, ch 2, tr) for a mesh (empty square), Olga Poltavahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16972704777268794969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8068962954335082067.post-1463543673774281862013-10-18T23:00:28.282-07:002013-10-18T23:00:28.282-07:00It seems to me that you followed a slightly differ...It seems to me that you followed a slightly different pattern than the one given in the link.

I had to make 64 pieces for my tablecloth!!!! That took me....five years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When I was bored of it, I made other things in order to relax my mind and the pressure I felt.

When I feel that way, I make myself do so much of the project first, like maybe 1 motif since those are big and then do a smaller fun project in between, like flowers or a hat, then go back to the motif again. So inorder to work a new project,I must first complete some of the main project. It helps me get motivated.
