That' really a coincidence that you mentioned Mickeysmail-Michael Sellick (Mickeysmail) is the person I was just emailing clarifications to about Rounds 19 & 20! He contacted me about doing a video for You Tube but the publisher has all rights to the design/pattern for now. I did contact the editor about it but haven't heard anything back yet. I kinda think they won't want to do it because they need to make their money from magazine and pattern sales before letting anyone else use the pattern on video for free.

I also asked the editor if they have any plans to add video tutorials with digital subscriptions-I'll let you know.

Thanks for the inspiring pattern. I hope you don't mind the mini tutorial I made to help with some of the stitches and row 19 cause I know it was stumping some people. People really loved the colors I used and with the pictures of the afghan and mini tutorial I know it gave some people some confidence and drive to give your pattern a try.  I wish you much luck for the future.

Thanks! I think a mini tutorial is great-I'd love to see more videos & tutorials but I sold the rights to the design to Crochet World when they published it so I have to defer to them for any clarifications/corrections. A lot of people had problems with round 20 too and Mickeysmail did some nice videos on that. This was a very difficult pattern to write and I appreciate any help you can give!

I enjoyed seeing the photos you posted-I especially loved the little girl's burgundy sweater & skirt set. Is that your design? It's just adorable.
