[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Lighthouse pattern

[Bernice Bird]

It seems like it would be pretty bulky. Also, I would still have to keep
track of 6 or 7 strands. I could see that working before I actually start
the lighthouse itself. I'll think about it.

Hi Bernice.
Could you try the other method, carrying a strand along the back and
twisting it with the working yarn every 3 stitches?  It might be simpler (or
it might not).

Good morning,

The lighthouse afghan is K79 in Marjorie's catalog and the digital format is
only $5. As Dixie mentioned, she takes cash or checks. 

I'm finding keeping the strands difficult. I need to get more bobbins to put
the different colors on. 

I've pretty much decided to use this as a wall hanging. I will sew a piece
of material on the back and frame it or hang it on a rod. The colors stop
and start so many times in one row. For example the medium blue starts and
ends the row, but it is used a time or 2 within the row. 

I have completed 6 rows, and I'm thinking of starting over after getting
more bobbins. I thought I could keep the balls of yarn separate, but it is
difficult. 

Bernice
