Just gorgeous Doug! Seriously that’s a fabulous design. (thank you for using #4 yarn for this project)
Thank you so much Lyn! This was an enjoyable design to do and has been very popular. I like using materials that are easy to use and with these kinds of designs, the maker is able to adjust the weight of the yarn for their own liking and purposes.
