Notes

What a wonderful pattern. It’s easy, fun to change colors, and turns out fabulous with little effort. I don’t think I’ve seen a project made with this pattern that I haven’t liked.

………………..

River will be having a Mermaid themed nursery. Mom and Dad aren’t into pink (yay!) … So its greens, blues, aqua, yellows etc. I hope purple is ok cuz it looks really cute with this pallet and its going in. (It’s a MeMom’s prerogative right?)

I will look for some sea life appliques to crochet or knit and sew on as well. Changing up some stitches to add interest. So far a very easy pattern that grows fast, looks great, and I’m enjoying crocheting it.

Going along swimmingly. Picture to show progress. Our orange kitty Seuss loves to supervise me with anything yarny…including pictures.

Almost done. I like the size right now for a baby. A few rows of border and I’m there. Gonna wing it…try some different colors and see what happens!

Finished crocheting this over Memorial Day week. Just finished up the weaving of ends for the border this week, and now it’s been washed and lightly blocked. I’m very happy with it. Initially I had thought to add appliqués of sea life…but I like it just as is.
