He's been lying on my desk for a few weeks now, poor thing. I must finish him and I think the CAL has given me a buzz to get his head finished!! Advice?.....dont be put off if your african flowers are wavy, stuffing will sort it out. I prefer the join as you go, read the instructions/and pattern carefully and thoroughly. It can be fiddly though. Remember the hippo is stuffed so you will need to crochet tight to avoid holes Here is my hippo in progress.

CROCHET ALONG - PROJECT 2 - WEEK 1



Welcome to the Week 1 thread for the Project 2 CA!!! :D

I am so excited to be starting our second project ALREADY and I cannot wait to get started!!! I hope you guys are just as pumped up as I am!

We have quite a few newcomers joining us, I want to share a very warm and friendly welcome with you! We are so glad to have you with us! Please say hello below and share with us a little something about yourself. What types of stitching do you do? Are you self taught? How long have you been crocheting? I am very much looking forward to getting to know you and cannot wait to see your talents shine! :loveliness:

YAY! Let's get started!

First let's review how this works: every Monday I will post a new check-in thread here in the Crochet Diary. This is a place for us to touch base and keep in touch. You can review and discuss our progresses, you can post your questions or concerns here as well as upload pictures to share your work in progress. Anything related to the Crochet Along is to be posted within these weekly threads. PLEASE DO NOT SEND ME PRIVATE MESSAGES IF IT IS CA REALTED! We want to keep everything open and public so everyone has a chance to reply or comment. This is a group effort, it is about ALL of us as a whole!
BASIC RULES AND GUIDELINES: 1)    Each week you will be completing the portion of the pattern listed in our Stitch Schedule
2)    Any questions, comments, pictures, etc. pertaining to that weeks progress should be posted publicly as a reply in that week's check-in thread so others have a chance to respond. This way if you are struggling or have any concerns we can all participate in helping you through it.
3)    Everyone interested in joining our Crochet Along will be responsible for downloading the pattern on their own! No handouts! No exceptions! If you want to join and do not have enough gold coins you will have to put in the work to earn enough on your own to pay for the pattern. I am sorry if this is an inconvenience, but it would not be fair to any of us or the author of the pattern. Please be honest. :)
4)    If at any time the Stitch Schedule does not fit your schedule, meaning if it is too much for that week, PLEASE DO NOT GET DISCOURAGRED! Simply leave a reply in that weeks check-in thread and we can hold a group discussion to determine whether or not we need to extend the time frame. Do not be afraid to ask! We can always make adjustments to the schedule!

So...the moment we have all been waiting for! Let me introduce to you our winner for Project 2...

AW, thank you. he's not stuffed yet so you cant see the shape of him. He's been lying on my desk for a few weeks now, poor thing. I must finish him and I think the CAL has given me a buzz to get his head finished!!
Advice?.....dont be put off if your african flowers are wavy, stuffing will sort it out.
I prefer the join as you go, read the instructions/and pattern carefully and thoroughly. It can be fiddly though.
Remember the hippo is stuffed so you will need to crochet tight to avoid holes

Here is my hippo in progress. I used regia sock yarn and cream for rounds 4 and 5

Oooh love the Giraffe and Hippo♥Hippos are nasty buggers they suffer with pmt constantly :-(.

Due to pressure of work, cleaning house, Christmas Parties (yep, they have started), two knitting / crochet groups I belong to in real time, visitors popping down to enjoy some time at the seaside, where I live and a host of things in between - I find that I will have to give this one a miss.Good luck to you all♥
