Monkey Blues for Lucas


Monkey Blues!

Here's my latest crochet project that I whipped up in the last three days.  I made this granny square baby throw out of left over yarn (Caron Simply Soft) from my other projects.  

It's for our nephew's son, Lucas, who is due this November.

   
It's one huge granny square in the round.  The edging is single crochet stitches of several colors, followed by half double crochet then single crochet again with the last round single crochet in corner, *chain five, skip two single crochet then single crochet again *repeat around.  I used a G Hook.


I used several shades of blue, brown, tan and two shades of green...the same colors that will be in the baby's' room.


It's 100% acrylic so it is washable and dryable...but because it is a non-natural fiber it can't be blocked.  It's 41 inches by 41 inches.  



Now to wrap the baby's shower gifts and add the throw.  

Monkey Blues is finished just in time to be mailed.
