Hooray! After much ado , scratching my head trying to work out the instructions...sometimes the stitch count didn't add up despite reading the instructions a zillion times....I finally finished my first octagon . Well, it is actually octagon number 2 because I started octagon 1 a few years ago which only has a couple of rounds left to do but it has to be unpulled because the stitches are wrong. I decided to pin my completed octagon to display it better. It has way too much pink in it for my liking but it will look okay mingled with all the others.
Octagon number 3 is in progress.
Now I am going to check out your blogs and get back to my crochet.
Love that first block, it looks amazing. Well done. The next one is shaping up well too. I have read a couple of books by that author and was underwhelmed. Maybe it was a bad day?
ReplyDeleteWow! What a beautiful octagon block. Number three is looking good too! Hugs Christine xx
ReplyDeleteOh my. That looks like quite a complex block. Beautiful though.
ReplyDeleteTake 2 is Gorgeous. Are you using cotton or a fine wool?
