I love it!!!!! So where is big red’s new home?
That is beautiful! I love love love that red. I will probably work more on mine tonight. I have to have it done by the 19th for the baby shower but I don’t think that is going to be an issue. This is a quick stitch. It easy to get in a rythm. It does stink though when I miss that ch 1 and last dc on the end of a shell because I don’t notice until I am rounding back to make the new shell! Then I have to pull it all out…again. :D I love crochet.
thanks for sharing!

I saw! It is so pretty! Can’t wait to see more.
Your red blanket is pretty.
Thank you! I was a little skeptical when I was buying the yarn, but am so happy I chose it!
Woah! That’s super impressive. I don’t think I’d have the stamina for that much work in one color and one stitch pattern.
I know, right?! You would think it’d get monotonous and boring, but it was actually pretty easy to complete! Especially, if you are watching TV or wanting some mindless crochet.
Wow it’s beautiful! The colour looks fantastic!
Thank you!
wow, this turned out amazing! super pretty, congrats :)
Thank you so much! things like this always pay off. :)
LISA!
I finished Big Green! I love the crab stitch. Thank you for sharing! The blankie was a hit.
Love,
