I decided on Sunday to make myself some boot warmers because its getting colder by the minute here. So I am crocheting along and what do you know I have semi-circle. That's what you get for crocheting during an episode of
Fringe. So... what do we have here? A beagle cowl of course! Thanks Mona for being such a great model (that was the least blurry photo I could capture). I am considering knitting or crocheting a body to attach it to. But she doesn't look very thrilled as is. I am thrilled, however, for finally working my way through a stash of blah orange yarn that I bought last year before I learned about specialty yarns. Still have lots left, better get to making those boot warmers.
"Bobble" is the stitch I used.. in case you were wondering about the title.
For those who want to know how to do this bobble stitch:
dc 5 in same stitch, leaving one loop on hook per dc (pull through first 2 loops after the first yo and then pull through one loop the second yo leaving a loop on the hook). After completing 5 of these you should have 6 loops on hook. yo and pull through all stitches remaining on hook. finish by slip stitching.
I've been lazy, sorry the photos still have a halo. I will send it off soon.
AW, she looks so cute! On my laptop the color looks more like red so it looks like she is ready for a fancy Christmas party. You could make Daisy a green one and they can attend together. :) (Not sure if Daisy would be thrilled about wearing one either though. Don't these pups know how cute they look in sweaters and cowls?)
ReplyDeleteI edited the first photo so there's is much less halo and a little more true color due to the wonderful light coming through my window right now! Enjoy!
