This looks very cool, will try it soon : Thanks for sharing (and glad to see you back on the crochet scene, does that mean your wrists are feeling better ?)
These were so easy to make (and I need to make 60 of them)! Thank you for this great pattern.
Thank you so much. Your pattern is so much simpler and easier to understand than the last one I tried.
This is so cute! I wasn't sure if I was following the pattern correctly because I could see neither a rose or a heart but it finally became both almost as if by magic towards the end. So, if you think you might not be doing it correctly - keep going! It turns out exactly as shown and suddenly you realize how easy it is and your rose/heart is complete. To the author; thank you so much for sharing your adorable little pattern with all of us! I look forward to using this on numerous projects. <3
Did you use 4 or 4 worsted yarn?
This is such an excellent video - well done!
Love your pattern. Just can't find the BLO after working 6 FLO.
