Hi Redtop! Go back to the windmill pattern...think it mentions the flying geese there but I couldn't find anywhere where it said how many you needed. I only have a Kindle Fire to get out on the internet so I had a hard time counting those little things on the rows diagragm. But I ended up with....don't faint!!!.....180! for my large throw...BUT...you make 4 at a time so that's just 45 sets. So, I did each set of four in the same color combo with different color combos for each of the other sets. If you can't find directions let me know
