Thanks for sharing...it's a beautiful amigurumi..I'll try to make it...^_^
no way can this project be completed in 30 minutes!!
And, what is this supposed to mean? Rnd 3: (sc, 2 sc) rep around.
I take it to mean in round 3- single crochet then do 2 single crochets.
I am wondering if it should read correctly thus:
round 3: single crochet, then 2 single crochets together.
I love it.
Very lovely!
very cute
thank you very much. so cute
so cute!
