Boo!tiful Candy Bowl
Lion Brand® Vanna's Choice®
GAUGE:
16 sc = about 4 in. (10 cm). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
NOTES:
1. Bowl is worked with a small hook to create a firmer fabric.
2. Work in continuous rnds; do not turn or join unless otherwise instructed.

Boo!tiful Candy Bowl Reviewed by Noelle Super on 2012-08-24
I made this and it turned out really cute. If I were to make it again I would stop working in the round after the base was complete. I did the first two "stripes" in the round and they looked uneven so I switched when I made the last four. The ghosts just looked like cylinders so I added a scalloped edge. I think purple and orange or black and purple would be really nice colors for this project as well.
