(Sometimes with chains, sometimes with stitches, sometimes with a combination.)<br /><br />I believe Margie Oomen of Resurrection Fern (who was the first I know of to come up with this idea) has a free pattern somewhere out there that includes instructions for closing up. But, with your crochet knowledge, you'd probably be able to do an entire cover without a pattern--I find I really like just "freehanding" it and seeing what happens. Sometimes I have to rip out some rounds and start over if it doesn't look like I want it to, but that's part of the process!<br /><br />Hmmm, it's been a while since I covered any stones....june at noonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14405406383067957490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681840333324090812.post-68788312345324121562012-05-21T13:27:07.090+01:002012-05-21T13:27:07.090+01:00Straight jackets for pebbles eh?

I can imagine a stack of them in varying sizes.....<br /><br />I think some made in hessian string would look very effective.<br /><br />Have you visited Resurrection Fern blog.?..... Margaret Oomen makes these (she was the first I ever saw in blogland making them) and they are amazing.....you'll definitely be inspired.<br /><br />Claire xClairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09742003349610251189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681840333324090812.post-83675130051314546482012-05-21T01:14:31.401+01:002012-05-21T01:14:31.401+01:00I think it is a fantastic first attempt!!
