Close ups of the caterpillar

I tried to get a couple of pictures of the caterpillar so you can see the antennae.
Hi there here are the instructions for the second block. I have instructions for stitches that are not knit or purl. If you think there is a better way for me to phrase the instructions please let me know.

Block # 2

Hi there,
Its time for block # 2 One Suday morning the warm sun came up and - pop! - out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar. I've used three different yarns for this block. I like the varigated. I wasn't sure the detail would show up but I like it. I also tried to get a few close ups of the caterpillar but I don't think they worked all that well so I'll try again when I upload the pattern in 2 days.

Off I went to the computer to plan. Next week will see the first pattern here. Check it out.
