Started Over

Well, I decided I was not happy with my first go on the baby afghan. So I ripped it out and have started over. I also found I had made a mistake. I tried to fix the mistake, but it just made it look funny. So here is a new start on it. when I started it this time, I also used a bigger hook. It seems to be laying much flatter this time.

And here is another shot. A little bit of a closer view.

And here is another shot of the finished Scarecrow. :) I havn't decided what to do with him yet. I may give him away or hang onto him and use him in some sort of a decoration for Halloween.

Today started out really hot. But we had a storm come through and it cooled it down outside. Tomorrows forcasted high for us is only 90.... Today it was 96 with a heat index of 105-110. It was a hot one!
 Time to get back to work on the baby afghan. Only another 18 days to get it finished......

Testing... 1. 2. 3.........

I tested a pattern out for a friend. It turned out cute. :)  It is a Scare Crow Pumpkin. For those that crochet, the pattern should be avaliable soon in Dianes Etsy shop.

Here he is almost done. :)

Finally finished. Overall it only took a couple of hours to make this cute little guy. :)

Here is an update picture of the baby afghan. As you can see I didn't make too much progress on it. I worked on the Scarecrow pumpkin yesterday. So now it is time to get back to work on this afghan. The edges on this one are curling up some. So I am hoping that the edging will fix that issue. If not, I guess I will need to rip it out and figure out something else.

And one last note: For the person that stopped by and asked about the Round Ripple. I was unable to email you a reply as it did not save your email address. So I am posting a link here for a pattern to a Round Ripple.

I hope you see this and are able to work on a Round Ripple. :)
