Who wants yoyo afghan pattern?

yoyo afghan
A few people have emailed and left comments about my yoyo afghan. I am wondering how many people are interested in a post with instructions and pattern. If enough people are interested (like over 50 I will not count duplicate posts by the same person as anything more than 1) I will try to make a tutorial up other wise I will continue to work on packing up my home.

Of course you wouldn't have to do as many rows as me or even the same size thread. Yarn could even be your choice, just use the right hook for the size of yarn you use. Also yarn would work up much quicker but still have the same type of feel.

Once you know the technique you can use it to make scarfs, baby blankets, edgings and what ever your mind thinks up.

  1. Well, I wasn't going to ask, since I know you're busy packing and whatnot, but since you brought it up...I would LOVE some instruction! I've been staring at these pictures for a few days now, and I just can't figure out how to do it, lol.

  15. I have just started making fabric yo-yo. Now a yarn yo-yo would be very cool. I too have been trying to figure out if they are single yo-yos or a continuous row.
    Please post some directions.

  38. I bought the book & just wanted to tell you the technique is very clever! I detest sewing so I love the attach-as-you-go aspect. Right now I'm making stashbusting flowers in various colors (center yoyo with 6 around it) using this technique that I will join with white once I have enough to make a blanket. It's going to be very cool!
