Where is the damn Rudolph hat photo! Preferably stuck on the head of an adorable baby if you can find a handy one

Oooh, I gave my first Crochet "lesson" at rugby this morning [proud]

Not sure if this will work but this is what I have been working on recently...

I asked for some help with the clanger a few weeks ago. In the end I stole the body bit from a pattern on ravelry (for a pig!) and made up the rest myself. I think it is recognisable although one of my friends saw it and said, oh an elephant

That looks like a perfectly respectable clanger to me!

Elephant??

It's obviously a Clanger! Elephant indeed - sheesh.

Fab clanger! Definitely not an elephant

Let me just finish this feed and I'll take a pic of him in his Rudolph hat

Done

LOLOL! Fabulous! :o

Love the baby. And the Rudolf hat. And the clanger. Some amazing stuff going on. You clever lot :)

Glad you like it

Love the clanger and the Rudolph hat

Pidj that is one cute hat on an adorable chick.

Love the hat Pidj would love to come to a crochet meet up some day.

That is most definitely a Clanger *MFTBrighton, a very cute Clanger.

The only problem with 5 WIP is it takes an age to decide which to work on.

I've got a mumsnetter in need of lessons, just waiting for a pm with her location. Watch out for pm's, anyone who put their location down, she'll pay in cake

Did someone say cake?

I am in Croydon but briefy in Bexhill-on-Sea 24th pm -27th am Dec

I'm awaiting pm, but I'm sure we can find someone who can meet her for

Hi Ladies, can I join please ? I have just completed my first crocheted Little Hug and have the bug (usually a knitter). DD is begging me for a blanky for her bed and I would love to make some 3D flower squares I keep seeing on the Woolly Hugs. Can you tell me if these are done all in one or if the flowers are seperate and sown on and where are the best tutorials to do this ?
Thanks

Hello, HaveTo, try ravelry for crochet flowers - there's loads! Make sure you've got lots of time, though

Woolly, you have pm

HaveToWearHeels, there are some nice squares with integral flowers in Jan Eaton's book 200 crochet blocks

hello, can I join? I've just finished my first ever project - a hat for my 9mo, and am now sandwiched between a stripry blanket and the beginnings of a Xmas stocking, wishing I was working on the blanket but needing to do the stocking. tough times!

I love this sport. it beats knitting hands down!

Welcome Poo. Or Catcher.

I have so many project on the go. I'm not going to get the Christmas gifts done that I wanted to as I"ve been trying to finish the Team Hooker Refuge blankets. Still, there's always next year!

One thing the Refuge blankets have taught me is that there is no way I could put together a full size Wooly Hug!

Thanks for your replies, I did find a video on You Tube last night so followed that, (pausing and playing and lots of rewinding) resulting in a sort of square. The actual squre part is "loopy" but I suppose I could just do a simple "granny square" instead of the loopy ? (photo on my profile). My trouble is, I can follow a demo but can't make head nor tale of a pattern lol
Jumped thanks for the tip, might have a look out for that book on my shopping trip tomorrow.
