Yay ❤ can’t believe how fast January has past us by!
I am doing a pink/orange/purple color scheme on the Odd Days and a blue/green/yellow on the Even days using the 4 weight yarns in increments of 10 degrees. Then a different color for just each of the following days: 1st day of Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter (just for fun) I even have another fun color for birthdays of my children and grand-children (just for more fun). So excited to see the end result! Thank you for all you do!
That sounds gorgeous!!
Sounds awesome
Sounds beautiful!
Was waiting all day for this lol!! I’m up to date and can’t wait to start this month! I only added one extra one row this month as it was my birthday and not a day I counted! Since this is my 50th year I wanted to make sure I included it! I added a color that wasn’t in my blanket at all so it stands out!! Thank you Tiffany!!
Happy belated birthday for a special one! And what a great idea!
Great Idea! I will steal it and add my birthday (50th as well) in June!
@@dagmarbrewig7617 happy birthday to you!!!
Great idea- I turn 50 in July and will do this
I am making 2 blankets, one for odd days and one for even days. Keep one gift one😊. Thank you for the fun project
Tiffany thank you so much. You answered all of my questions. I was concerned about the size but now I know I can relax. Also thank you for showing your calendar because I wasn't sure if we started on the 1st or the 2nd. Like I said you answered all of my questions. I did join the club I think this is going to be alot of fun. Thanks again for all of your hard work.
I’m so glad I was able to answer all of your questions! Yay! So excited you joined my new Crochet Club! I hope you enjoy it and get a lot out of it! 🤗❤️🧶
Great job explaining the concerns!! This blanket is gonna be beautiful with the different stitches. Thank you Tiffany!!!
This is the first temperature blanket I’ve made, although I’ve heard of them for years. What drew me to your design is the different stitches that change monthly and that the blanket isn’t huge, so I can do other projects through the year. I’m also using scrap yarn I already have, so it’s a great stash buster! Thank you!
Love the stitch. Thank you Tiffany.
I’m new to a lot of crafting I enjoy your video very much one your not speed talking or mumbling you clear in your directions thank you
Thanks Tiffany!! So excited about February's stitch!! 😁👍
Wow! Love love your energy and passion ! You go girl!
That’s a great stitch for February. Thank you Tiffany.
I'm so excited to start the new month. Such a great project
I am loving this stitch. So excited to see how this blanket turns out. 🥰
Thank you. I am greatly enjoying
This project. I am all set to get going on February's stitch.
I love the detail you give. I've already started a temp blanket CAL with another channel but am seriously considering starting starting one to follow along with yours! Thanks for sharing!!
I was waiting for this, going to be working all week to catch up with the one blanket, been sick. But I am glad it is the bead stitch for February, since I seem to like that stitch.
Great tip for using the calender to keep track of which row to do on each day!! I have never done the bead stitch but I like it!!
January just flew by, think looking forward to every other day had a lot to do with that!💕
It looks really pretty !😊
Loving this!
Loving the new stitch’s this month. I have just done 2 row this morning while the house was quiet. Thank you Tiffany🎉
Never worked with the bead stitch before. So pretty 🤩 Thank you for all the explanations. Makes perfect sense now 👍
Thank you
Ive never done this stitch before. Really like it. Very pretty! Thank you for tutorial!
I have planned on making this special to me on my birthday and my children's I am going to add an extra row that month. I am making mine in earth and blue tones.
Ooooooo beautiful!
I can't wait to see how my February will look like. My January looks like what the month of March should be, lol. Just living this project. Thank you for everything you put into making this a successful and enjoyable experience.
Thank you for explaining things so well. I can't even imagine how you figured all of this out! I'm left handed and have never tried the bead stitch. I think I'll do a practice run today so I'll be all set to go with row 1 tomorrow.
I'm loving your process. I'm making a scarf (30 stitches) for the opposite days. This way, I have each day done. My youngest brother has claimed the scarf. Thank you. 😊
Thank you! you have made this stitch look so easy. I’m fairly new to crocheting…and branching out of just the basic stitches intimidates me a bit. But you have explained it so well. I am going to try to do a swatch soon to see if I can do it! 😊
Love this stitch!!! I made sure to watch the video before work this morning. The printouts are so helpful. I’m loving the way my blanket is looking already.
Your tutorials are so easy to follow. I just started a closed granny square blanket for my aunt. You video explained it so well. I was crocheting in no time. Thanks Tiffany for sharing ❤️
I'm really ready..... start ing the blanket sampler
And with the different stitches I don’t see a need to have a yarn break color in my opinion. It’ll be pretty easy to figure it out!
I did a temp blanket with one row per day ( yes- 365 rows) but I did knit - very much smaller stitches which ended up being 60” long.
In crochet, I can imagine how long this blanket would be!
I am using 12 coordinating colors for this blanket - just using one color per month ( no temps) to showcase the beautifully different stitches you are showcasing.
I like it! I would love to see your blanket when it’s all done. I’m very intrigued by what you’re doing. 😊❤️🧶
I am doing the same thing! I am using birthstone colors for each month. Are you still doing 2 rows a week? I would also like to add a single crochet row between each month using a neutral color.
I’m doing one color per month. One ball per month, which gives me about 5 inches per color. I figure the blanket will be about 60 inches long plus any border. I am using cream, beige, tan, and grays - i will post a picture when it’s further along. I love the idea of birthstone colors!
@@lesliebowles3649 thank you so much for your reply! Your colors sound so pretty! 😍
I’m loving the bead stitch this month it’s one I have never done before and it’s so easy to do. Its that nice I have finished the month already has I couldn’t put it down. Thank you Tiffany. I would love to send you a photo if that’s possible. ❤
I’m so happy you loved the Bead Stitch Dawn! Oh please send me a picture! You can either tag me in an Instagram post (@crochetwithTiffany) or email me info@crochetwithTiffany.com. 😊❤️🧶
I’m using the 5 weight and instead of doing 2,days per week I’m doing the avg low and avg high per week. So one row will be the lows and the next row will be the highs.
I almost wish I would’ve used the 4 wt but I couldn’t get it in in time to start and I didn’t want to wait. I have almost all the colors I wanted now and am still considering switching the yarn lol.
I love what you are doing with the weekly high and low! That is really cool! If you are eager to try the size 4 weight yarn you can always make 2 blankets like I am doing. 😊
Wow! I’ve never done the bead stitch before.
I’m loving it & it’s beautiful & addicting too!❤ The only problem I’m having is wanting to add more than 7 loops. Lol. I have to count them to make sure that I only have 7 loops on the hook!
Thanks so much for teaching me this stitch. I’m having a blast making my temperature blanket!
I’m so so happy you’re enjoying this blanket project! That’s my goal! 🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️🧶🧶
Love my blanket so far!! Unfortunately, Mother Nature played a nasty trick on us and set the temp down to -45 over the weekend!!!! (3 days!!!) That warranted a special color for that and had to dig out a special color for that !!! (Bright pink!!) We are now slowly climbing up to -9C (15F) so I can back to my regular scheduled colors of yarn. I just fell in love with the bead stitch which I thought I didn't like!! Thanks so much for putting this together.....lots of time and hard work! Greatly appreciated!
😱😱😱😱😱😱Oh, My, BRRRRRRRRR. I can't even imagine! Completely agree with you. That merits a very special color. Stay safe and stay warm craftygrandma56. 😊🧡🧶
@@CrochetWithTiffany Mother Nature is surely NOT on my side!!! Overnight we had freezing rain and this morning I woke to a wonderland of snow and icicles on the trees!!! Temp today is 4C which is about 40 F!!!! I just found another yarn change color......white with silver glitter.....certainly representative of snow and ice!!! Now to see if I can dig up some more yarn in case we have an earthquake or tornado!! LOL!! Maybe Mother Nature is trying to help my create my blanket....very colorful indeed!
Yep, it's confirmed; with my man hands I'm a tight stitcher. My January row measures 3.5" lol. Still looks good though. I'm happy. I may add a couple rows of SC now to separate my months since I'm short. I'm looking forward to February. Temps are getting colder here, so new colours are on their way.
I am too, I always have to size up right off the bat, even doing that I couldnt get my swatch to match hers. I gave up and just chained till til got to 60 ins and im working with that. The yarn I chose is working up more like a 3 too so ive been doing every day. Ill finish january and do some calculations to see what im working with lol.
My 1st month was 3.5 inches as well. I am going to try switching the bead stitch to the way Tiffany did it for the Starry Night Shawl, with 2 sc rows between the bead rows. I will treat both sc rows as 1 day and do them in the same color. This should make the sc rows approximately the same height as the bead row and add 7 rows to the blanket to compensate for my tight stitches. I know this changes the idea of a temp blanket because some days will be 2 rows and some only 1 row but since it makes the width of color per day for the month the same I think it may be ok. I will do a few days and see if I like how it looks.
Woohoo 🙌
I decided to do a BIRTH YEAR temperature blanket. I'm really excited to see how it turns out! I was curious how you would handle a 2-row repeat, AND I like how you're dividing the months! I've only been crocheting since December 2021 after i retired. Hope I can handle the stitches!
I’m doing a birth year blanket as well! Excited to see someone with the same idea 😄
You’ve got this granmy4255! Please email be pictures of your Birth Year blanket as it’s coming along! I’d love to see how it works up. 🤗❤️🧶
Twelve or Twenty feet would be a looooong blanket! I was thinking about doing a half row per day for the 4 weight. The center line might wander, depending on the stitch, but it would get all the days in, if that was important to anyone.
I am doing a half row per day in the 4 weight and so far, I like how it is coming out. Like you said, the center might wander depending on the stitch. For example, based on the bead stitch pattern and 192 stitches we should have 95 beads, which would make the line wander. The way I compensated for that is to treat each day as a separate row within the row. For my first day color, I started with a chain 3, then did 47 beads and then a double crochet to end that color. Then, I started the new color with a dc, then 47 beads and a dc to end the row. This gives me 2 dc in the middle of the row instead of a bead and allows the colors to still divide evenly in the center of the row. I don't know if I will be able to divide future stitch patterns in a similar way, but I look forward to seeing how it works out.
@@tanyadecosta80 Sounds like a great plan. And I think the "wandering" will add some interest to the blanket!
I wish we could see a list of the stitches to come. I just tuned in and am considering trying this, but am not sure the size of yarn I'd like to make my blanket with.
Man I really wish I had more yarn at the beginning so my blanket had more colors. Ok well if I get through this I will do one next year.
Hi Tiffany, I am watching your progress, but I wasn't able to get the yarn to join in! I will save all the videos for future reference 🙂
Feel Free to jump into this project when you are ready! It's never too late to get caught up. 😊🧶🧡
Hi Tiffany, the blanket looks gorgeous so far. Thank you for leading us in this project. Just to clarify - are we going to put a border around the blanket?
Great question Cecilia! Yep! I plan on adding a nice little border to finish off the blanket in the beginning of January 2024. Once the blanket is complete for the year. 😊❤️🧶
@@CrochetWithTiffany Thanks. Yes, i think it will round it off. 💗💓💕💞
I'm a little confused about how you are counting a day if you or someone can answer my question. My question is, on the 4 weight yarn, is on day the bead Stitch, then the next day to Crochet the single stitch or is one day bead and single combined? 🤔 Sorry to have to ask, just want to get it correct.
Thank you again, Tiffany. I love learning new stitches. I'm pretty sure my mom and grandma are looking down from heaven cheering me on and smiling. (Actually my grandma may be saying I need to redo some things).
I had to rewatch and read the pattern (find it on her site)
One day do beads STOP switch color if you have to then next day single crochet
That’s for the Size 4 yarn 👍🏻
Hi Tiffany Hansen right now I am working on my cottage core mosaic blanket and granny squares blanket and single crochet blanket and sedge stitch blanket and I love your channel and your videos and if you keep making videos I will keep watching them and what is your favorite crochet project to work on right now and favorite types of yarn to used when crocheting and keep up the great work on your UA-cam channel and keep up the great work on your crochet projects ❤
I can’t seem to get my bead stitch to come out with 95 beads. I’m using size 5 yarn. I ripped out my work so many times and have followed the video over and over again. Thinking I’m too much of a newbie and may just do a single crochet for the whole blanket.
Hi Squeaker. I'm sorry the bead stitch was giving you trouble. You could also try to replace the Bead stitch by just using a Double Crochet Stitch in each stitch space for the height. If you would like to just work a Sc stitch I completely understand. Do what will work best for you. 😊🧡🧶
I love the idea of a temperature afghan that's also a sampler. But I'm a little disappointed that the Feb stitch is bigger (taller) than the January stitch. That will mean that the distribution of colors, representing temperatures, will not be proportionate - i.e. colors for Feb temps will have more 'representation' than January colors.
Please tell me where to find the JANUARY y tube video! I love your teaching!

I hope you have fun working this blanket up! So happy to have you crochet with me! :)
Hi Tiffany, this project has been so fun and I’m really loving the bead stitch. Can you share how many beads we should have in a row?
Thank you!
I’m wondering the same thing. I’m getting 95 and my friend is getting 94.
My friend and I both got 94 beads but we got 189 sc’s and she says we should have 192. How many sc’s did you have?
Great question Laura! My 4 weight blanket has a total of 95 Beads in a row. The 5 weight yarn blanket has 65 Beads in a row. 😊❤️🧶
I too got 95. 😊❤️🧶. Ask your friend what their stitch count is in the single crochet stitch row. 😊❤️🧶
I am using the 4 weight yarn and I have 95 bead stitches in all my rows too 😊❤
Hi Tiffany…I love the look of your temperature blanket! I am having trouble keeping the number of stitches consistent…I chained 193 stitches 4 times and started my rows, but they weren’t ending on the correct stitch. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. Anyway, I’m caught up in Feb and currently have 188 stitches. Any suggestions?
Oh Gosh Peggy, that is a hard question for me to answer here in the comments. The best thing I can suggest is that you come and join me in my Crochet Club Membership where I can help you in persons with what is going on in your project. I'm able to meet up with members over a zoom meeting where I can see both you and your project and be able to help 100x's better.
Please check out members.CrochetWithTiffany.com and join one of the weekly lives we have.
If you're not sure if you want to be a member that is totally ok. I do have a 10 day free trial you can use to get in, join one of the lives to ask your question. Snoop around to see if you like what the membership has to offer. And then decide if you would like to stick around. 😊❤️🧶
Hi Tiffany! I’m really enjoying learning how to make the bean stitch. My main question is should the “beans” of each Bean stitch row be evenly placed with each other? I think there should be a total of 95 beans per row, but mine aren’t lining up evenly with the other rows😪 I do tend to use a tight tension (working on loosening though) but am I doing something else wrong??
Hi Marguerite! If you are coming up with 95 Bead Stitches in your row then you are perfectly on track. It might look slightly different than mine but that is perfectly ok! Everyone's stitch tension is different. Being on count is the most important thing. 😊❤️🧶
Can this be just a blanket using any colors I like I never crochet a temperature blanket before and do I have to crochet 193 chains that’s to long for me I prefer 80 to 100 chains is that alright I love your videos you explain things so well even I can understand it 😊thanks
Hi Diana! If you would like to follow along and just make the Sampler Blanket in whatever colors you want then yes! Feel free to adjust the size of the blanket to whatever size you would like to make. Just make sure you are hitting a multiple stitch count of a multiple of 4. 😊🧡🧶
Good evening Tiffany, I'm going to start with this temperature blanket, I will catch up till I'm on the same pattern.
What I want to know is how many skeins of a color must I purchase. I want to have everything in place before starting.
Looking forward to your reply.
Joan from South Africa
Hi Joan! So excited to have you join the project with me! I think I answered a lot of your questions in video 1. Here, let me add the link for you: ua-cam.com/video/R-MFRiO4Z0k/v-deo.html
Hi Tiffany, thank you so much, I'm really excited to get started.
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful ideas with all of us all over the world, 😊👌👏
If I am making this sampler blanket this year 2024 instead of last year 2023, I am doing the 4wt but I’m making it for every day instead of every other. So with February there’s 29 days this year so I will end with a “row 1” or should I start with a row 2 so I end on a row 2?
Oh crap, I counted there and back as one row. Oh well it don't matter I'm making a textured blanket with all the different stitches each month.
So chain 1 to move up to the single crochet and chain 3 to move up to the bead stitch.
Yes! That is correct! 😊🧡🧶
Love the different stitches and am enjoying the project. But I need a blanket that's longer than 74 inches, but isn't 12' long. Any suggestions on how to get one that's approximately 7 - 8 feet?
Tiffany mentioned that some people are adding 1 or 2 rows of sc between the months. This may help you. You should measure the height of your single crochet rows. If 2 rows equals 1 inch and you place them between every month, this will add 11 inches to your blanket and put you at about 7 ft
That is a great suggestion Tanya! Thank you for mentioning that. I also plan on showing a simple border to put around the blanket in the beginning of 2024 when the project is complete. You could add more rows to the border to finish the blanket right where you want too. 😊❤️🧶
Thank you so much for the pattern! I have a question. When you do the temps for your area do you do the 10 day forecast or check everyday?
That is a great question! Honestly, that is up to you and what works best with your schedule. For me I only work on my blanket on the weekends. I’ll check the past weeks temps and then catch up. But there is no right way to do it. I hope this helps. 😊❤️🧶
Thank you!!
Is there a technique with doing the bead stitch with the 5 mm yarn? Guess I just need to keep practicing
Nope, nothing different. Maybe just to keep everything looser to give that bulky yarn some space. 😊❤️🧶
How many slanted cluster stitches should you have each row if you did it right?
Hi Katie! I count 95 bead stitches in each row, which are also known as that slanted cluster stitch. I hope this helps. 😊
Hello! Tiffany when are you going to do March Temp pattern?
I release the following Month Stitch on the last Tuesday of the month. That is my regular upload day. Interestingly enough for this month Tuesday happens to be the last day of the month. That will not always be the case. I am offering early content releases for Crochet Club Members if you would like to see next months stitch ahead of time. 😊❤️🧶
Check it out: members.CrochetwithTiffany.com
I am so sorry I thought you had said on last Thursday.
@@lindastumbaugh2758 no worries! I’m excited you are so eager to know what the stitch is! So happy you are working on the project with me. 🤗❤️🧶
Quick question, is this a yarn eater stitch or does it work out about the same considering one row is single crochet??
That is a great question Ms. Pinto. It is definitely more of a yarn eater than the Crunch Stitch we were using in January. I am seeing more movement of my skein this month. But I wouldn't way it's the worst I've seen. 😊🧡🧶
I'm doing 1 row everyday and will break it into 2 blankets consisting of 6 months each.
That's really cool! I would love to see how your blankets turn out! Please send me a pic. 🤗🧶🧡
I would love to know the chain count for your 2 blankets. Would it be half of the 192? I'm not a math wizard at all. Thanks on advance.
Tiffany, you said for the 5 weight yarn that we should end with 132 stitches. Shouldn't it be 92 stitches?
The chunky started with a chain of 133. Go check out the pattern and notes sheet on her site 🥰👍🏻 hope that helps
Hi Diana. I think I might need a little more information to help me with your question. How did you start, which stitch are you working (crunch or bead) and are you referring to the number of stitches or beads? Thanks! Oh! And please email me so I don’t lose you in the comments. 😊 email: info@crochetwithTiffany.com
I started late and am just beginning February. However, I am 10 stitches short. The pattern looks great but instead of 192, I have 182 single crochet stitches. I have counted the single stitch row multiple times. Not sure where I would have gotten so off track and may just start the whole thing over. My cast on was 193 - counted more than once. So I guess the stitches were lost somewhere in the crunch stitch. :-( Thoughts from those more experienced than I ... ?
Hmm, maybe try the bead stitch section one more time and if it’s still not working for you just replace the bead stitch with working Double Crochet stitches. 😊
@@CrochetWithTiffany Thank you. I'll try again. 😊 I appreciate your help.
Oh my, I have crocheted EVERYDAY
I'll have a huge blanket Yikes!!!
That would be fun to see tho 🤣🤣 but could get pricey
@@Crochetedbymichi so true, Lol but I'm not going to rip apart now, it's too pretty. I might have to improvise somewhere 😀
@@lisasmith2502 just continue now with just every other day. I actually did the first 14 days of January and then switched up every other day because I’m not planning on a border at the end. I’m using the first 14 days as a brim sort of 👍🏻
@@Crochetedbymichi that's a great idea
Thank you
Ok so Feb 2nd is row of bean stitch then Feb 4th row of single? Or feb 2nd row of bean AND single then repeat feb 4 bean and single? Confused here...
2nd beads
4th SC 👍🏻
@@Crochetedbymichi Thanks Michaela !!!
Can I start my blanket beginning with February stitch ?
Sure! Just be aware that February's stitch created twice the length that the January stitch did. So you will end up adding some extra inches to your blanket that I hadn't accounted for. If you're ok with that then go for it! 😊🧡🧶
Can you give me an idea how many stitches I use to start with if I want to use a size 3 weight yarn. I noticed the big difference between a 4 and 5 weight. So will there be a big difference between 3 and 4weight.
It would be more in the starting chain. The pattern is a multiple 2+1 so you could chain your foundation to a length you like and then make sure the count is multiple of 2 plus 1
So you may have 220 stitches plus 1 = 221
Hope that helps and makes sense 🥰
I am using a size 4 but its working up smaller I ended up needing 238 to get to 60 ins with 6.0 hook.
@@Gingerrrrsnapps did you do your plus 1?
@@Crochetedbymichi yes it does, but I am wondering if it will work with every stitch she has planned for each month.
@@dianeo931 it will work since you measured 60 inches
Keep going
In the tutorial when the stitch showed where it was messed up at the end going sideways. That will not mess up our blanket will it.
Nope, I checked it with my own little demo behind the scenes. Because we have an actual stitch space for that last Dc stitch and we are not placing any stitch in the corner turning chain I think that is lining everything up. It will have really pretty straight sides. 😊🧡🧶
@@CrochetWithTiffany thank you so much. I crocheted my 1st row yesterday and I love it. This is the very cool stitch. Thanks for all your hard work, you are very appreciated.
My bead stitches aren’t very slanted, any suggestions Tiffany?
Nope! If you bead stitches aren't slanting that is awesome! You must have a very nice crochet tension. Keep up the great work. 😊🧶❤️
Hi Tiffany, I ended up with 191 stitches and not 192. Will this present problems for future patterns?
Are you counting the turning 2 chains as a stitch? If yes then we want to add a stitch in the row so the Bead Stitch will work. If you are NOT counting the chain 2 as a stitch then you’re fine. 😉❤️🧶
@@CrochetWithTiffany Thanks
Wait I’m confused. I started this last night. Got January done. I’m doing the size 4 one where we don’t repeat. But this time around you’re saying we are doing 2 rows?
Hmm, not 100% sure what you mean. I'm guessing, since you said 2 rows, that there might have been a miscommunication with how many rows you will do with the blanket made with size 4 weight yarn. You will still want to continue working every other day.
If you are referring to the pattern used, each month the pattern changes and will have a different requirement.
If you have more questions, feel free to email me so I don't lose you in the comments. Email: info@crochetwithTiffany.com
I am noticing the bead stitch is slanting like in the stitch tutorial video. Stitch is beautiful but slant is not. My stitch count is on point. Will this balance out with the March stitch?
Hi Kim! Great question! You are all good. As long as you’re on count everything will straighten out in the end. I’m going to be addressing this concern in Tuesday’s video. Hope that eases your mind. 😊❤️🧶
@@CrochetWithTiffany thank you it sets me at ease!! Thank you Tiffany !😁💜
How many slcl’s should be in a row when finished?
Hi Mary Lou! I counted 95 slcl's or beads in my row using a size 4 weight yarn. 😊🧡🧶
Don’t know what I did wrong but I have 94
I seem to keep getting of track as well. Is there supposed to be 192 V’s when counting the single crochet stitches? I think I have ripped out my February stitches three or four times now.
Okay I have restart I don’t want a 12 foot blanket 😅
HaHaHa 🤣 Been there, done that!
How can I upload my work
You can email me OR tag me in a social media post. 😊❤️🧶
How many beads are in a row? My edges are not coming out very straight. It just looks off. I have frogged row after row. Not sure what to do.
Hi Brandy! This same thing is happening to me too and many other people. Focus on the Sc row stitch count. As long as you are staying on stitch count do not worry about the blanket angle’ing. We will straighten it out when we make the border. 😊❤️🧶
Okay thanks. I will trust the process. Lol ... can you tell me how many beads are in the row?
@@brandybyrum4277also was wondering this
Does that mean that Feb 2 is bead st, and Feb 4 is the single st?
Haha nevermind! I figured it out 😊
Just found this video, where do I find January. Pl.
Tiffany put the link to January as well as the getting started video in the description of this video and also in a comment that she pinned to the top of the comments.
How much quantity of yarn should I buy?
Can you please address and show your edges in the next video you do? I have to set this aside and maybe scrap the whole project. I jut don't understand how even with a border this can be corrected. Maybe I am doing g something wayyy wrong.
Have faith. If you are on count it will be ok. Even my sides are slanting and yes! I will be addressing the sides in my Tuesday video. Do Not Scrap anything just yet! ❤️🧶
