    Note to new crocheters: this isn't the only way to do this. If you're looking to have both sides be good, use the bobbin method . Essentially this is where you attach a new skein/cake of color on eahc "section" that way you don't have to "float" your yarn. You'll end up with multiple balls of one color while doing so. You could also if you want to do the bobbin method but instead of attaching a new bobbin, you cut the end of the skein off and continue using the same skein but this way means more ends to sew in when you're done

    If you use a cross-stich pattern, it will already be marked out in 10x10 blocks eliminating the need to do so much counting. Cross-stich patterns are easily available in books that you can put a metal sheet behind and use magnet strips to keep track of your rows. I've been doing this for decades.

      I’m sure that you’re going to make beautiful things!!! 😊💕🌷 I just wanted to let you know that God loves you. Jesus, the son of God, lived and died for us. He lived a perfect, sinless life, as an atonement for sins. If we believe in Him, He forgives our sins, changes our hearts, and gifts us eternal life in heaven. There is no pain, suffering, or death there. Pray to Him and ask Him to change your heart and ask Him to forgive you ❤ the Bible, which is Gods word to us, says this in John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
