I have two sizes of angels right now.
The one on the left is with worsted weight acrylic yarn using a G (4.25mm) aluminum hook and is 4 1/4 inches long. The one on the right is made with size 10 cotton thread using a size 7 (1.65mm) steel hook and is only 2 inches long. The larger ones are going in the mail today to Maggie's Crochet for a festival of trees fundraiser they are helping with. It's to benefit a children's hospital and I am so tickled that it is somewhat local (well, same state anyway). And thanks to the 2008 Girl Scout council merger I even know where Kernersville is!
My darling little 2-inch angels are destined for my troop angels at Christmas :) My girls are all angels and I hope to show each and every one of them how special and precious they are.
I'm taking a break from a lot of stitching today to make sure everything is ready for tonight. When there are anywhere from 350-500 kids that come by trick-or-treating, it's best to be prepared as early in the day as possible ;)
Have a happy and safe Halloween!
