Pi(e) Pals

 

Bonsoir,

I have been making some pie pals lately.  First, in honor of Thanksgiving, I crocheted a pumpkin pie.

The top is a Tunisian crocheted circle, which I learned how to make at: http://practicalfibers.weebly.com/tunisian-crochet.html

I think I started with a chain of 12-ish.  

Then I single crocheted down the sides with brown, doing the first round in back loops only.  That left some loops to do the pie crust.  I did a half-double crochet scallop with the wrong side facing up.  The bottom is a felt circle. (In case you were wondering, the white blob adorning the pie is whipped cream.)

I had to make another pie, of course.  (I’m pretty sure you noticed that I can’t seem to stop crocheting.)  But this pie was of a different kind…

 

Yes, the number π.  I am obsessed with it!  I memorized 34 digits (3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841…) and decided it was time to crochet a Pi.  But there are not an abundance of free π crochet patterns.  I wonder why?  Luckily, I did find one:

I Spy Pi

Well, that’s what I’ve been up to!  I’ve also been crocheting for my Halloween costume, I can’t believe it’s in 4 days.  But for today I will bid you goodbye.
