Thanks. I like the idea but cannot knit into the front and back of a stitch. I know how to in theory, but in practice I am clueless. I have tried but the stitches just turn into one again when I pull on the working yarn. Is that supposed to happen? Any ideas on what is happening?
I think I'll try this pattern. Wish me Luck!!
Thanx! Pink ombre flowers on a charcoal grey hat.
Just right for embellishing the baby cuddle sack I recently completed!
I made a head band to match the sweater for a Teddy bear (not enough yarn for hat), needed emblishment which you provided. Looks great! Thanks. TT
How cute! Can't wait to make this one!
I love these ..so easy to m ake and use them on many projects including one in each color to interchange with hats to match my coat color.....
This is a great pattern. I was looking for one to fit onto a small headband. I have two granddaughters who live in St.Louis and they wanted me to make one for them. A headband should be easy to just knit....so I needed an embellishment. This will be perfect. Thanks.
Thanks for a super easy pattern using worsted.So generous of you to share.
Mmmmm, it's hard to make out the picture, so I can't tell if I want to knit one or not?!?!
It's really pretty ^_^
nice pattern. i think i will make one.
very nice!
I used this pattern to adorn a gift for my mother and she loved it! Great pattern!
