We just had our first snow fall here in Central Pennsylvania this past week! That means we had a snow day and I had lots of time to hunker down and get crackin’ on this afghan! I have two new squares to share with you – this woodland bear and a little hedgehog you can check out here.
Along with that, I have done the math to figure out how many squares I will need to make this afghan. It will be a bit larger than an average throw. Click here to check out all the details you need to follow along! I am planning about 10 different woodland critter/themed granny squares, so we’re about half way there!

Do you have a video
Maria Weaber
Unfortunately, I do not. I have never made a video yet, although I am planning on having videos available in the near future!

I love this so much, I am working on a piney woodland afghan and these animals are perfect!

How did you do the actual granny square?

I'd like to start off by saying thank you for sharing these adorable patterns. I'm having fun making these squares and looking forward to the finished afghan. I'm having trouble with the bear though. I'm not sure I'm reading the pattern correctly but try as I might, I can't get the same contours of the face and head. Mine looks nothing like yours. If you do decide to make a video, would you consider making the bear first. I really need help here. Thanks again for sharing. It's so kind of you to share your talent with others.

I am having ths same issue's with the bear pattern and i am an expeiced crocheter and pattern reader a video would be greatley appreciated.
Maria Weaber
Hi Jenna! Sorry you're having issues. I did have this bear tested and re-wrote directions but I understand it can be a bit confusing. I am working on creating video tutorials. If there is a certain section I can explain in the mean time, please let me know!
Deborah Camp
just started the bear. So much fun. Thanks for sharing Maria! I'll see if I can get through the "tricky" part ��
Rebecca Frazier
I am looking forward to the video… my bear looks more like a cow. The contours are not right and it looks too skinny in the middle.

Thank you for sharing your patterns. I'm having problems with the bear. Do you have a video? Would appreciate the help. Blessings!

I've recently posted a video tutorial! I hope it is helpful 🙂
Linda DeWyke
Sooo glad you added the video! I'm not experienced enough to fully follow the written so it was exrtremely helpful. Just starting this afghan for my grandson who is due in Aug and my daughter loves the woodland collection! Very excited! Thank you for the wonderful pattern ����
Lisa
Thank you for this pattern. I just made the bear, it came out perfect (with help from the video), love, love, love it. Can't wait to make the entire afghan! Thanks again! Lisa

Hi, my name is Judy and i have a question.How are you attaching the appliques? Are you stitching them, fabric glue? I'm making this for a 2 yr old so what's the best method? Thanks
Maria Weaber
Hi Judy! I attach the appliqués by sewing with a tapestry needle and the same color yarn as the appliqué 🙂
