"As The Crochet Hook Turns..."

Lost My Crochet Hook and My Mind...
I added to the sleeves on the dress, because the doll's arms are half cloth and it looks weird. This is how I did it:
Round 1: Join yarn w/ a sl st in the ch space in the underarm area. Ch2, dc in same space. *DC in next 2 dc, skip dc before Ch 1 space, dc 2 together over ch 1 space and next dc, Repeat from * around. Join w/ sl st in top of first dc.
Round 2: Ch 2, dc first 2 dc together. *Dc in next dc. Dc next 2 together. Repeat from * around. (17 dc)
Round 3: Ch 2, Dc first 2 together. Dc in next 5, dc next 2 together. Dc next 6, dc next 2 together. (14 dc)
Round 4: Ch 2, dc around.
Round 5: Ch 1, sc in same space. Ch 1, sl st in top of the sc just made (picot made). *Sc in next two spaces. Ch 1, sl st in top of sc just made. Rep from * around. Join w/ sl st to first sc. Fasten off.
I finished crocheting all the clothes last night. I was weaving ends in on the booties with my hook, in the computer room. I came in here this morning and I couldn't find the hook or the last bootie, anywhere. Sigh..... I have more of the yarn. I could make another bootie. But, I need the hook too. They're both gone. Uggghhhhhh... I jinxed myself because I posted a reel yesterday about losing your crochet hook. The Universe said, "Oh you want to lose a crochet hook? How about your crochet hook, and the bootie you're working on?" π‘ Thanks, Universe...

Are You Sitting Down?...

There's a couple/few... I think the fleece booties would probably be the best ones, because I don't think crocheted booties would last very long, or be vcry much protection from wet or snow. They would be better than nothing. But... They also wouldn't last long. In my opinion. Also, I can't measure Sadie's paws, try them on as I go... And, I would have to mail them... I HATE the post office... Sigh. I told him to go to PetSmart, or order online. If I lived there, I would probably crochet her some. But... Maybe I could crochet some for Jaxson. π (He would not like them.) Elsie has some that our son bought her. She does pretty good in them, after a few minutes of goose stepping. Dogs in Boots video. Elsie looks like the dog at 1:02.
