Kelly, this blanket is so pretty and really excited to stitch and learn each week. Can you please tell me how many V stitches/flowers that you’re supposed to end up with? And/or how many stitches are left on the bottom of the path that we’ll be stitching on next week? Since we’re just starting I really want to make sure I have the base right so I’m not fudging each week’s section. Thank-you! Patty
Hi Patty
Sorry, I should have included the count in the pattern. You should have 18 Popcorns in each row and 47 stitches left on the bottom for next week x
