Finished caterpillar
The pattern for this caterpillar was quite easy. It only uses simple stitches, and can be finished quite quickly. If you stick to the correct measurements, that is to say…
By making it longer than the original, it took me a while longer to finish. It uses a lot of single crochet stitches, which are easy, but rather small. And if you do hundreds of rounds just using the single crochet, it gets quite monotonous. Sure, Grey’s anatomy helped me through it, but still… If you want to make an extra long one like this one, it’s nice to have another project at hand as well, so you can switch when it gets boring. Switching is also good to relieve your wrists now and then.
Eventually, I did finish it. And it’s already doing great work as well.
How cute! I love it!
and Grey’s gets me through many of my crocheting / sewing projects as well!
ps did you want to do hexagons like this?
