crochet pumpkin gone mad - HELP!

[Red Rock]

Hello All:

I am glad I am making your TE reading enjoyable.

I have continued with what I was doing and it has become a lichen WAY out of control. I am hoping that when I do just a single crochet in each "loop" it might mellow out. I will see...progress...half a skein forward only to tear it out and to start again 3-4 times later.

salsabike: To answer your question, I am only doing two (2) single srochets in one loop, not the double crochets.

I think part of the problem might be the size of the needle/hook that I am using. Again, I'll see when I am finished or have torn it out a few more times only to start again. I could see doing this with a larger hook. For me I think it would make it much easier. The directions say to use a G 6/4 hook.

Happy reading and cycling!
