My Curiosity....

Ok, so, I don't know if this will be something I'm able to keep up, but I kinda wanted to start a blog with a bunch of random craziness! I get these koo-koo ideas, and sometimes they turn out great. Other times, not so much, but I'd like to share the craziness that turns out good with others. Maybe it'll help someone figure out how to do or make something. And hopefully other people will see this and can tell me what they would do to make it better.

My first post will be about my first attempt at making a baby cocoon. I had no luck finding a crochet pattern online, so I decided to be brave and attempt one all on my own.

I don't think it turned out bad, but it could use some work! Especially on how to make the hood. I don't even know if I could really explain how I did that!

Basically, I took a baby hat pattern, and changed the yarn type to the Baby Clouds, and used a much larger hook, a K I believe, and used the directions for the first few rounds to get the basic bottom shape. Once it was what I thought was big enough around, I just started working rounds alternating between DC and HDC every other round. Though in hindsight, looking at the picture that inspired me, I should have make the foot area much smaller and expended gradually up the body of the piece, but oh well. Anyway, that is basically how I did the body. And like I said, I need to come up with a better way to make the hood. Any suggestions would be super!! And, I f anyone really wanted to know, I could post more detailed instructions later. This whole thing is kind of a test. Anyway, hope you enjoyed! :D
