I had to rip out row 9 of the Skill Builder Hat by aklori Designs and crochet the whole row again. I have to admit that the row looks better than trying to patch things up. I am just not that good at Tunisian crochet yet. So I went with my strength and ripped the row out. By the way I prefer ripping out Tunisian crochet over knitting just because I don’t have to be as careful. I just put a stitch marker where I want to stop and rip away. Then I got to row 10 the hardest row for me so far. It required dropping 2 stitch markers to accommodate a change in the pattern. As you can see from the picture below I am starting to add the 2 rows of curves for the medium size hat. It took 1 1/2 television shows to get through row 10. I think I should be calling them rounds, because I am crocheting in the round. Rows just sounds better to me right now.
I have one more row to crochet before I start the body. That sounds very easy after rows 10 and 11. Just the Tunisian knit stitch and the Tunisian simple stitch for a lot of rows. The good news is that I will be down to 1 stitch marker. Then I get to the brim and have to learn 2 new to me stitches. Wish me luck.
Tonight’s progress. You can see the first row of scallops that I added tonight.
It’s been a very hard day on my body so I am calling it an early night.
