There are so many wonderful patterns and ideas out there that I sometimes find it hard to choose what to work on next. I've come across some wonderful 'graphgans' that have been crocheted using a graph pattern. So, I thought I'd give one a try. 

My second passion next to crochet and crafting is animal welfare. I have two gorgeous young dogs and thought why not combine my two loves into one project. And so the 'Luna' portrait was born! 

I used the website https://stitchboard.com to create my graph. There is some great information on this site too. As a beginner I tried to keep it simple and worked on the smallest size available and only used around 10 colours. I was pleased with the result and am now 'hooked' so to speak. I can't wait to get started on the next one :)
