new square

I'm going to step out of "the book" for my next square. Bev posted this link to Janet Wolfe's Baby Blanket pattern. You can make it a square or continue on and make it a blanket. Or make a bunch of squares and make it a scarf. Never be afraid to step out of the box!

I've done this stitch a number of times. Gives a lovely look.

When my MIL was ill with cancer, she asked me to finish two afghans she had begun. One of these was worked in a similar way to this pattern. I don't remember where the pattern came from. MIL provided it. The shell rounds were a cream color and the chain rounds were different bright colors.

I'll be working my square later and will post a photo when it's done.

Off topic, I'm presently crocheting a police box afghan. I'm not following a pattern, but making it up as I go along. I am probably about a third of the way done on it right now. Photos at Crafty Corral if you're interested in seeing it.



Happy crocheting!
