My mother made her request for christmas months ago, and I've just now gotten the inspiration to make something for her! I found a pattern for this, but it was not exactly what I wanted, so I modified it, of course!

With wrong sides tog and working through both loops of both pieces, join front and back, at a lower corner, by working sc in each st around increasing as necessary to keep piece lying flat; make loop by crocheting to where you want it, then ch 10 off the piece, join with sl st back in same sc you left off at, and continue on until end. FO, weave in ends.
