Bobble Babushka

I went my own way on this one, and it still looks like a plain ol' Granny Square..

It does have Bobbles, and long chains, but alas....no so different.

oh well.   

And Parker served as the back drop once again

Octagon Motif by Ellen Gormley
Winter or Fall 2015 Crochet! Magazine

I love this one, partly because it the 2 yarns really work together.

This was fun to do too, yet another technique I hadn't done before

On the second round where you need to put 2 stitches in each stitch, you alternate between the 2 yarns!

Looks great. 

Love you Ellen!!
