Post #4085040

I copied this pattern from a completed afghan and have almost completed a first strip____just need to finish going around once more in white___ but I feel it is a little inaccurate. It seems a little tight. I know a larger hook will loosen it up, but if anyone knows the name of the pattern, has a pattern for it or can tell me where I can find one I sure would appreciate it. It's just a shell down the center, edged with navy and then white.

The variagated yarn I found contains navy also so I will need to start over when I find a yarn that will show up better for the shell. This is my second attempt, so if anyone knows the correct directions so I'm not starting over a third time I would love to know. Jean

Tore out, started over with an I hook instead of an H and a different yarn for the shell and found a better shell effect. Think this will work out.
