Carrot Rattle

Supplies
Lily Sugar n’ Creme Cotton Yarn (Hot Orange and Sage Green)
3.5mm Hook
yarn needle
scrap yarn for marking rows

Notes
Making my adjustable ring
wrap the end of your yarn around your first two fingers two times, so that the end of the yarn is closest to the end of your fingers.
Slide the crochet hook under the first loop, grab the second loop with the hook and draw it through the first loop.
Chain one (this counts as your first sc for the round)
Sc Decrease
place hook in stitch, yo, draw loop through
place hook in next stitch, yo, draw loop through

They make up really quick. I did both of them in one day and I have to chase my 2 year old around the house. I was able to create a panda one for a friend this morning. It is rather addictive because it is so easy.
