It took me a long time to settle on the final look of my square, but I am very pleased with it, and I hope you love it, too! Since I am a left handed designer, I have the unique insight that a lot of right handers just don't think of~You guys are BACKWARDS! LOL~I kid, but I have included visual assistance for both left and right handed crocheters in my pattern... Follow me for the written instructions~ |
