I had terrible trouble with this pattern - just couldn't seem to understand the instructions - but I realised that loads of people HAD managed to crack it, so I persevered. This is as far as I have got at present...

wool-eater, close

Hopefully I'll stick at it long enough to make a reasonable-sized lap blanket!
