MIL's Cro-hook Afghan

I love cro-hooking . So very relaxing for me. And the blankies are so warm & snuggly. The link to the tutorial is in my sidebar, under Crochet 101 links.

I made this one for my MIL's b-day. I'm a little late.(it was in feb.) sigh.

I love how these blankies are double sided.

Finished & showing off my new hamock, hubby got for me.

The trim is just a simple shell stitch.

Crohook Scarf

Cro-hooking(double ended crochet) was the first type of crochet I learned to do. And for me it is the most relaxing form of crochet I've found. I love to get into a blanket, find my rythym & cruise along.

And the blankets made this way are so warm. It also makes very cozy scarfs & shawls. Here's a little one I made for a niece for Xmas. I think it turned out cute.

Here's a link to a tutorial on cro-hooking. http://www.crochetcabana.com/specialty/crochet-double.htm I work through the horizontal loop like in the second sequence.
