Purchased the kit because I loved the vatiety of the stitches and the great price of the kit. Had trouble with the diamond stitch section videos were no help to my aged brain. Was so thrilled with the Learn to Crochet Style Afghan. The instructor also the designer explainec the process in a simple way and I am now into my third repetition and ordered another kit.I am relatively new to a more complicated pattern and this saved my sanity. Love the frequent Hdc stitches and the feel of the yarn. Learned a few tricks to kerping the 147 stitches where required.The pattern yarn and hook are different than in the kit. First try made a much wider afghan. Went to an I hook and width is 51. Did not want to use H hook since am okay with slightly wider afghan. Think I will have enough yarn for three repeats and maybe 54 length. I crochet tight so am puzzled with this. This video is worth every penney. Thank you, thank you.Cassandra W

This tutorial is very helpful. I started with just the directions that came with the kit, but got confused in a few places when the patterns were new to me. After quite a bit of UTube searching, I finally found it, and it has clarified all my confusion. I was really disappointed though, that when I contacted Annnie's customer service site to ask if there was a video or help with my questions, no one ever responded. Big thanks to Lena Skvagerson for her easy to follow instructions. The button to repeat the last 30, 60 or 90 Seconds was a Very Useful feature.

This is a beautiful afghan to make. The video tutorial is super easy to follow, and as someone who is new to crocheting, I appreciated the step-by-step video instruction, and it also taught me how to read the pattern as we went along. This was my first big crochet project and I loved learning all the new stitches and textures. I can't wait to start making another one.
