Granny Square a Week-Week Forty Four

Happy Halloween! Hurray! I love Halloween and this week I have two squares, both in the Halloween theme, one I have been looking forward to sharing for a while.

The first one:

Spider Web Square by Dayna Audirsch

This is a very straight forward square, worked up easily. I stopped after Round 6 for size. It is very cute and practical for the afghan!

The second one is my own creation: I call it my Frankie Square! I just made a basic granny square with green and when I was working up my last round, I did one side and 2 corners in black, for hair then added eyes.

The eyes were made like this:
In white, make a magic circle or chain 4 and slip stitch in the 4th chain. Chain 1 and make 7 sc in the round. slip stitch to the first sc. Then work 2 sc in each sc around (you will have 14 at the end), slip stitch to the first sc.  Leave a long tail for sewing. There is the white of your eye!

In black, make magic circle or chain 4 and slip stitch in the 4th chain. Chain 1 and make 5 sc in the round. Slip stitch to the first sc. Leave a long tail for sewing. There is your pupil!

Sew the black to the white and then sew that to the green anywhere you want. I also added a scar above the eye, I just made long stitches with a piece of black yarn.

And here he is:

Until Next Week!!
