Betty Lou's TGIF Recipe: Meat Grinding

Today we're going to grind meat!

ScrapHooked

I'm not much of a scrap-booker. I collect scraps of special stuff and put it in a draw, box or even a ziplock bag. Sitting down and planning out a page with pretty (and surely expensive) paper, stickers and fancy tools sounds like too much pressure for me! 

In this case, my mind is changed forever. 

Stripes Away!

I love crocheting new patterns! This scarf is super easy and I can't wait to finish. 

Materials:

Medium (#4) weight yarn: 2 balls A, 1 ball each B, C, D.
Crochet Hook: 6mm (US J-10)
Gauge: 12 sts = 4" ; 18 rows = 4"

Now What:

With A, CH 25
Row 1: SC in 2nd Ch from hook and in each Ch across; turn - 24 SC.
Row 2: CH 1, skip first SC, SC in back loop of each SC across to last SC; 2 SCin the back loop of last SC; turn - 24 SC.
Row 3: CH 1, Sc in the back loop of each SC across; turn.
Row 4-23: Repeat Rows 2 and 3 for pattern.
Row 24: Repeat Row 2 changing to B in last SC.

Continue in pattern working color sequence 

[ 12 rows B, 6 rows C, 18 rows D, 24 rows A] twice. 

Fasten off. Weave in ends.

Enjoy

Christopher Columbus?

My friend Amy, who I made the first apron for emailed me about making a costume. Her son, Ashton had a school project coming up and he needed to be Christopher Columbus.
