| Loom Knitted "Baby Turtle Shell & Hat" made by Darlene Bordon. Photos courtesy of Roxanne Marie Photography. |
Darlene Bordon, one of my blog readers, contacted me at the end of April and said that someone wanted her to make a turtle shell back and matching hat for a photo prop - similar to this picture. Since she doesn't crochet, but does loom knit, Darlene thought my Baby Gran Hexagon pattern would work just fine and she mainly needed advice on how to seam the hexagonal motifs together. I suggested that she use either the mattress stitch or whip stitch. Lion Brand also as an excellent photo tutorial that has become my favorite on How to Invisibly Seam Granny Squares.
As you can see, Darlene's loom knitted Baby Turtle Shell & Hat worked great! A big "Thank You!!!" to both Darlene and Roxanne Marie Photography for sharing these precious photos and their creativity.
Here is an overall shot of just the Baby Turtle Shell & Hat:

That is just adorable! Darlene did a beautiful job. What a sweet baby and great picture.
That turned out great! I thought it was the same baby. But at a closer look I could see it was different. Great job!

Love the blog Brenda! But I couldn't have done this project without your awesome pattern!! Your talent is inspiring. Thanks for the kind comments also. But Carrie, it is the same baby in both of the pics of my photo prop:)

Thank you!
These are just incredible pics Brenda! Amazing the places your creativity takes us. And what a fun project to share with us (especially with the Granny Round class just around the corner)
And THANKS for all the links as well ... I can never have too many instructions for seaming techniques :)
