some may remember my grandson Joey (12 yrs old)has been designing on EQ5. I posted some of his designs awhile ago.
Here are some of his earlier designs

This last weekend he asked me to help him write a tutorial so he can learn to write patterns.

Here is his first attempt. We would like any feedback so he can have an idea of what he needs to improve to make it viable to use as a pattern

I do know we will have to figure out yardage but other than that any suggestions are more than welcome!

I know he has more to learn and will make some improvements as he goes.
