I am having problems with the clusters in row 13, mine are coming out flat and they look like popcorns in the picture. Is there anyway to get a larger picture of the afghan so that I can see the detail better? Is the cluster worked in a dc from row 12 that has a 2 chain space on each side of it?

Can this pattern be converted to double knitting weight. It seems to take a lot of yarn?

We have just become the proud grandparents of a little girl, Gabriella Marie, & I started making the Angel Baby Afghan .
I have the directions from Crochet World December 2008 issue & I have gotten as far a row 7. It seems to be a combination of row 8 but I'm afraid to continue until I get your advice.
Sincerely,

I am making this pattern in pink. It is pretty easy to follow, but the shape of my angels are not as defined as the one in the picture. What can I do different?? Am I doing my stitches to loose?? my gauge looks fine. thanks!

I am unable to copy the instructions from Row 6 on.
It just comes out a jumbled mess with all the comments printed over it. Is there any way that I can get this pattern.
I make baby blankets for our Hospital auxilliary and I would really like to have this pattern

I have made this blanket several times for baby gifts and they are recieved wonderfully. The size allows the blankets to be used for a long time.
