I've done microcrochet around pebbles, snails and other little treasures, but learned to play around with adjusting around the object with increases and decreases...and lots of unraveling ?...so I loved to learn Anne's super cool "sizing" tip, which seems to magically tighten the end without so much work and a super cool look! I have been playing around with it today, adjusting the size to show more or less of the stone and it worked wonders!

This is darling!  My Girl Scout friends will want to do this everywhere!  Thank you for sharing!
