Sandwich the 3 felt circles together, between each crochet motif. Double check to make sure the right side of each motif is facing outward. When everything is aligned, sew a secure seam across the top of the sandwiched motifs. You can also do this with your sewing machine.

MonikaRose,
ReplyDeleteThank you. I check my e-mail several times a day. What question did you have about your pullover?
I've been learning how to crochet from various books, and I have finally found your website, which I love! Often I find it easier to watch you than just to read the instructions. One question, what sort of yarn would you use to make one of these? The yarn looks so thin and delicate.
ReplyDeleteHi I'm Gi-ri from India. My village women are the 'Lacemakers of Narsapur'. I found your site first in YouTube. We felt it great, as my women don't understand english, but started praising your skills. We share with you the designs we do, if you are interested. Thank you.
ReplyDeletepansiri,
ReplyDeleteThank you very much. I would like to see your designs. I bet they are beautiful.
Billie,
ReplyDeleteI used size 10 crochet cotton. You could do it with a smaller yarn sport weight 2 or 3 ply yarn if you are not comfortable with thread.
Hai Teresa,
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of your crochetwork. Crocheted allmost everything you posted on your youtubechannel.
Now i'm very much into this kind of elegant crochet patterns. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Teresa,
ReplyDeleteI am trying to do this crocheting pattern on Youtube, but I didn't understand what kind of hook you used. Is it the US1\2.35mm hook? Thanks! If you could email me, or comment on my blog, I would appreciate it. :)

Hi Teresa,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Randy. I've recently gone through rehab for chemical dependency and found myself in need of a hobby. For some strange reason I thought of checking out YouTube to see if anyone posted videos of crochet work and how to's. I started with the motif or doily then went to the puppy sweater. I still have to look at your videos to be able to complete a project but I really enjoy it. I do however have a favor to ask...I have a sister that really likes doilies but the only pattern I know of is the motif you made for your pins and needles. Can you direct me to something that's a little more challenging? I'd prefer something from you because your camera takes the perfect shots plus you make out look so easy. Anything you can offer will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, RT.
Hi Randy,
