This stitch was difficult, but I like the look of it.

There’s a Starman
This is the next mandala from “Modern Crochet Mandalas”, by Interweave. This one was a bit difficult to make. It has more rows then you’d think. Each of the three outer rows is actually made by crocheting three rows around each other. The result is very nice.
I kind of like the backside of this one, too.
Crinkle
This would work up into a nice garment.
Corded Ridge
This one’s not doing much for me.
Baby Hat #3
I got a third baby hat out of that purple skein of yarn. This one will also be for click for babies.
Vernal Season
The third mandala from “Modern Crochet Mandalas”, this one by Melinda Miller. Now, this one was frustrating. There was a mistake in the directions in almost every row. I did a lot of frogging. I found that by reading the directions and looking at the diagram, I could figure out what was needed. Proof reading, people. Proof reading!
Raised Brick
I like the raised stitches.
Baby Hat #2
This is the second baby hat that I’ve made for Click For Babies.
This one is my own design. Same yarn as before. Same skein, even.
Raised Ripple
This stitch was interesting to make. It would like good with rows in different colors.
Baby Hat
I went to Vancouver’s Knitting Guild meeting with my mom last week. One of the members was giving away purple yarn to make newborn baby hats for Click for Babies. I didn’t have any kids, so I don’t know from experience, but newborn babies can cry for no reason. Purple hats are given to parents when they take their newborns home. This is a reminder that crying is normal and to not get frustrated. There are patterns on the website. I used a pattern by Elisa Purnell. The yarn I was given is Lion’s Micro Spun yarn.
