Halloween is just 10 days away! My kids finally settled on Tinker Bell and Superman although it took some bribing to get them to stick with those. There was a little bit of cajoling to have Miss T not choose Doc McStuffins which then my little man also wanted to be. I so did not have time to make a doctor's coat, let alone 2 of them. Oh kids.
A week ago I had this idea pop into my head and I couldn't rest until I finished it. It's a crochet candy corn garland and is a pretty quick project using just single crochet stitches. I crocheted in the back stitches to give it the ridged look to give it some more texture. I love how it turned out. Hope you enjoy!
