Although I'm not a Hawkeye Fan....



All Finished!!! It took 3 Months, and fits a twin bed! I think it's great!

One of the busy projects I'm working on a very late Father's Day project for a good friend of mine, and I just have to share! I designed the pattern myself like the Texas Logo, on StitchPro. It's to have the initials of their 4 children (one in the oven!) and Father's Day 2012 personalized on it. And for those Hawkeye Fans out there, I've included the graph pattern just for you!



Iowa Hawkeye's Graph Pattern

You can see BABY and SWT, The bird is almost done!!


 
My first photo of the work in progress. Not bad...just need to work in the ends!

Birdie is done! Now just to finish the personalization, block, and border!

  3. Jane, thank you for your compliment! I follow the graph as every stitch is one square on the graph. When I reach a new color on the graph I change yarn color to match, I haven't blogged in a long time, so tomorrow I can blog some crochet techniques for following graphs!
