Turtle Power

Over the weekend, I started working on a crochet turtle applique to be placed on one of the squares of my Anniversary Afghan that I am making for my parent's 60th Wedding Anniversary. I free hand crocheted this turtle, using 2 different shades of green yarn from Michaels. The brand is Loops & Threads, and the colorways are: Forest Green & Deep Forest. I will be posting a photo of my turtle later. I also added buttons that look like little google eyes. There will be 2 turtles, since we had 2 turtles growing up. One was named Ricky and the other was Lucy....yes, they were named after the I Love Lucy show. I plan on reversing the colors, so that each turtle will be different!

We went to Michaels over the weekend, and found the perfect yarn for when I crochet the squirrel for this afghan. More about that later!
