A LESSON IN GAUGE

So Mom finished her dishcloth and even though we were using the same yarn and the same needles, mine was smaller than hers!  
Later in the day we were working out a granny ssquare layout for a baby blanket and we see that my squares are all bigger than hers even though I ws using a smaller hook than she was using!  We got tired of trying to figure it out and decided to sleep on it!  I hope to tackle it fresh this morning after church!
Yesterday, my sister had some demolition going on!  She lives next door to my parents.  The men had removed all of the decking from the house to the pool .  In a few days the pool will be removed, too, because they are getting an in ground pool!  Fun to see the work getting done for her while I am here.

  3. Interesting that on the granny squares yours would be bigger than hers when you used a smaller hook. My tension is always changing, especially depending on time of day or how tired I am.
