Sam Winchester and Tracy: Completed Jun 8, 2013
My first double portrait, commissioned before I could practice on a wedding gift portrait. :p This lucky lady got her picture taken with her favorite actor, and bestowed upon me the honor of crocheting their portraits. I am truly excited to work on this project--creating a special piece of art of a wonderful memory, for a lady who is a joy to work with. I was a little leery at first of her shirt--it's VERY colorful in terms of multicolored crochet--but after the first couple of rows, I found a method to keep the work flowing decently. It totals 97,440 stitches; so far, there are 18 colors. ~13 x 16 inches. The Apr 23 photo is a redo of the 5th segment. I had nearly finished the 6th when I looked at what I'd done and realized that I had chosen VERY wrong colors. |
