My Work in Progress...


Row, by row, I'm making a little progress on the Fisherman Wedding afghan.  It is a bit slow going, but I'm enjoying working on it and I like the way it is looking so far...

I went back to the hook sizes that the pattern calls for, I had thought about using smaller hooks, but I wasn't happy with the drape of the fabric, so I went back to the larger hooks.  

I'm off to sit in my crochet chair and get hooking, I've got a wedding deadline to meet!

I hope your week is going well so far.

    Nice work!

It will be a while before I can tackle a project of this size but something I would like to do. Have a wonderful day. Blessings.
