Jack the Scarecrow
I saw a really cute scarecrow pattern here Crochet – Scarecrow & Pumpkin – #EC00294 (e-patternscentral.com) and decided that would be an easy project to take with me traveling to see Jackie (my mother-in-law) last fall. I picked up the yarn and packed it to go. I started working on it at Jackie’s house when we weren’t out and about on the magical island of Nantucket. Jackie got the biggest kick out of watching “Jack” come to life. I finished him while we were on the island and brought him home with me. As it turned out, Jackie passed away a couple of weeks later. It was at that point that I christened him “Jack” in her honor. I hadn’t intended to keep this one, but that all changed. Now Jack lives in our house forever.
