Instructions easy to follow, yarn absolutely beautiful to work with and a deadline to work toward. All I have to do now is to sew 3 little buttons on it and tomorrow morning it will be on its way to Belgium.Dorothyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10237217955755971642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9120102770811275751.post-53452428964279262122010-09-24T11:11:59.118+10:002010-09-24T11:11:59.118+10:00You crochet beautifully Dorothy, and the pattern i...You crochet beautifully Dorothy, and the pattern is delightful :))..
