The Remembrance Poppy
Have you wondered how the Poppy Became the Symbol For Nov 11th Veteran's Day.
World War 1 Ended on 11/11/11,
the 11th Month, 11th day, 11th hour.

"The Poppy is the enduring symbol of remembrance of the
 First World War. It is strongly linked with Armistice Day, 
Which is November 11th. 

Wear the Poppy on your right side of your shirt or lapel.
 The Red represents the blood of those who gave their lives.
 The Black represents the mourning of those who
 did not make it home.

 "The Poppy's origin as a symbol of remembrance
 lies in the landscapes of the First World War.
Poppies were a common site, especially on the Western Front.
 They flourished in the soil churned up the fighting and shelling.
 The Flower provided Canadian Doctors John McCrae's Poem
 with inspiration for his poem "In Flanders Fields", 
Which he wrote while serving in the Ypres in 1915. 
In 1918 American humanitarian Moina Michael wrote, 
"And now the Torch and Poppy Red, we wear in
 honor of our dead." 
And Campaigned to make the Poppy a symbol of 
remembrance of those who died in war.

The Poppy continues to be sold worldwide to raise money
 and to remember those who have lost their lives in the
 First World War and in subsequent Conflicts."

What is Going on with my Crochet Hooks?




The Letters and numbers are the same
But Measurements are different?
One I hook is 5.25 mm and
 The Other is 5.50 mm
They are made By the same company - Boye

This is a Standard Crochet Hook Chart.



















Recently the makers of some of the Crochet Hooks have played a cruel joke on us.
They have changed the measurements.

So What do we Do?

This is were measuring as you go, and watching your tension, are important.

Remember

tape 
measure

 Best 
Friend

Today I am demonstrating how to Crochet
a Curly Q to get the best curl.
There are several different ways to make a
 crochet Curly Q, but I have found that this
 method gives me the best curls.

The Curliest Curly Q Crochet Pattern

Skill: Easy

Materials:
Crochet Hook - H/ 5.00 MM 
Yarn - Worsted Weight (4)Yarn

Stitches:
Chain (ch)
Slip Stitch (slst)
Double Crochet (dc)

Size: For a 4 inch Curly Q ch 20 + 3
5 ch = about 1 inch of curl
Of course this depends on how tightly your crochet

Pattern: 
Ch 23, 1 dc in the 4th ch from the hook,
3 dc in each ch across, 
ch 3, join to the last ch with a slst 
and tie off leaving a 12 inch tail of yarn for attaching.

Now it's ready to attach to hat, scarf, bag, 
or what every you want to attach it to.
