hello! I found your site through the happy hooker book. I bought the book and learned to crochet last week, and this pattern was the most complex I've done so far - but I was amazed at how easy it was! I just made it this afternoon and I am wearing it right now :)
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful patterns,
cheers, Dorothy |

Hi Sarah, thank you. I'm glad you like my patterns. I'm sorry you can't use them. I don't know how to diagram them and I don't know of any site like what you request. |

Error Rnd 2 count. It should be 33 Dc instead of 34. You have 3 dc's in each dc for 11 which would made 33 dc's.
Thanks for the wonderful pattern. |

Peg, I'm so glad it finally worked for you. Now I'm the one with print problems. My printer stopped talking to my pc so I can't print anything. I've tried everything I know and still can't get it to work, so I ordered a new printer today. Hope that solves my print problems. |

Dot,
I guess persistance paid off. Either that or I finally got the instructions to work. Either way it finally printed.
Thank You So Very Very Much

Peg, I don't know why your printout is not printing everything. Try highlighting the pattern, copy it and paste it in a word program on your pc and then print from that. See if that works for you. |

Dot,
Why do these print without the full instrutions. For some reason the instrutions are cutting off on the right margin |

Thank you so much, Jenny K. I'm so happy to know that someone self-taught and new at the craft can understand my patterns. I try hard to make them as easy to follow as possible. Congratulations on teaching yourself to crochet. Please let me know if you ever need help with any of my designs. I'm never to far from my keyboard. |
