Customer reviews
Very clear instructions. I particularly like the blank layout grid - it made it very easy to work out my own colourway.
Great! I love the idea, the way of colors and it's really easy to memorize.
I couldn't get my stitches to look right. Gave up in frustration.
Have made 3 of these, great pattern. Easy pattern to follow.
