Wrapping up the Crochet Harvest Fields Afghan

 Just a recap on this off the hook... And then...on to the next. 

I promise no more of Harvest Fields.....thanks for your patience.

The new yarn is at the post office,  it should arrive today. Looking forward to starting a new project, with a different color yarn, and different stitches...I love starting a new project.

Here she is not yet steamed, all loose ends in weaved it, I like her much better now, that I can admire her from afar. It was worth it! 


Pattern :  Harvest Fields
Yarn: Caron Simply Soft Victorian Rose 4 skeins
Hook G
Time to complete about 3 weeks

The pattern called for a K hook, which is large so the finished product per the pattern should be about 53".

I used a G hook, which is 4 sizes smaller. I crochet loose and so I can afford to go down a size or two on the hook size. I tried using the K hook, and while the stitches were looser, they were to loose. My stitches were not defined and it looked rather messy. I am not a fan of a bigger hook in most cases, the G works fine for me. I tend to use the same weight yarn, and it calls for G hook.

Crochet hook G is s 4mm, K is 6.5 mm.  

There were 46 rounds to this pattern. 

I see that Kristina & Phoebe have stopped over for a visit, they were neighbors at  CBTS, and are now new neighbors here at ARosebyandby...Thank you.
