Crocheting a head ... progress by @cryptocariad

Sometimes us needleworkers like to get ambitious and try making things on our own with no pattern. That’s exactly what @cryptocariad did! She decided to try out a crocheted red squirrel on her own off of ones she had seen in pictures and viewed from other patterns. Join her as she takes a step into her creative zone and read about some of the steps she took to get this started!
