DD returned my call. She's VERY HAPPY with the off-white Homespun and Red Heart black Infinity Scarf. I used a "P" hook, 2-strands together, chained 78, and joined, ch-1. I did SC for 2 rows, then BLSC for 1 row, SC for 2 rows, BLSC for 1 row, then ended with SC on both edges. It turned out nice!
But DD said she'd like me to make them about 10 stitches longer. She's petite, but has broad shoulders, chest, back and a larger head than mine. I'm taller than she is, but my head, neck and shoulders are smaller. So when I tried it on at home, for myself, to fit it, it fit me fine, so I thought it would be okay for her. It'll be after Christmas before I make her another one, too. I might get some more Homespun yarn and make her a pretty one again, only I'll chain 90 this time.
I'm crocheting on a "Mario" hat. I'm starting the decrease stitches now. The hat's top looks huge to me, for a little 4 1/2 year old boy!
If I cannot get the hat to look "right",
I'll crochet a "Mario" mushroom cap and a "Luigi" mushroom cap instead. All I know is that the hat's made my wrist hurt, I now use my wrist brace and this is a job that I don't think will EVER END!
I love to crochet for my grands, but sometimes the pattern directions, written by a self-professed (on-line) designer whom says she's not the best pattern writer in the world is so TRUE!
Ugh-a-bugga!
I'm off to work on the hat some more before bedtime. I hope to get it done sometime tomorrow.
