Crochet-Along Clue 3

Can't wait for the spoiler pictures to be posted! I am looking at mine and...is anyone else noting that you can't really see the points once you finish round 5? It still looks nice and all but I was hoping they would stand out more. Wishing they were in a different color so they would stand out more

i think i'm going to do a second afghan and make the flowers in the pinwheels stand out. Think that would be fun

Try right clicking on the link and doing a save as. It'll save the PDF to your computer then you can open the file like youd open any other file on your computer.

The only thing you can do with right clicking is save the link, that won't download the file.

I still can't get it to open. Still says "failed to load PDF".

When I click on "Save Link As", it gives me a window to save and the file format is PDF, so you *should* be saving the file. Which browser are you using? If you send Jen a PM, she might be able to help you through it. There could be several reasons your "refresh" isn't working. If you want, send me a PM with your email address and I will be glad to send you the corrected PDF.

You're right, but it still won't work. Says it's corrupted

I am half way through the first motif. I just fastened off. Where is the mistake? Do I need to start over? Thanks

It's not really that kind of mistake. If you are looking at the diagram, it's correct. The uploaded is file correct now too. If you look back through this thread you will see the correction. End of Round 4 instructions say "dc" instead of "sc".

When the message comes up that says the file is corrupt, click cancel then press F5. I was having the same trouble and when I did this, it worked. Hope this helps!

So somewhere earlier in the forum I read that this is the last time we will use Constrast C. I finished both Motifs and only used one ball of yarn. This leaves me 1 whole skein of my Contrast C left. I'm going to be disappointed if there are only 2 11" octagons and 1 4" square of this color in my whole afgan! Please say it ain't so!!!!

You should have 4 with color C (of this octogon) and 2 with your main color.

OMG!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR POINTING THAT OUT! I was just getting ready to start my 3rd in MC!!! I would have been SOOOOOOOOO angry if I wouldn't have caught that until I was finished! I bow to you excellent skill at reading the pattern and for pointing it out to me!!!!!!

Done with first motif. I really love it. My C is "Bark" and at first I thought it was going to be a flower but looks more like a medallion to me so it came out really pretty. Love it, love it, love it!

Finished with my first block!!!! Once again, I needed to triple crochet the last two rows to get anywhere near 11" but it worked wonderfully.

I'm making two, so only 11 more to go
