Hello everyone,
Today has been a lovely day, warm with beautiful sunshine, we have just come home from a family bike ride around the lake down the road... Erin will be finishing up her Ancient India block and she will start Ancient Persia on Monday. Jenna is still busy with the architecture of castles with in Middle Ages and Caiden is finishing his Weather block tomorrow...
And now for the knitted snail tutorial, and if you would like to know how to knit an I-cord, you can refer to it here.
(Oops, spelling :)
Thanks so much for reading this tutorial, I really appreciate everyone who visits here and love to read your comments:)
Warmly
Linda

Don't laugh, but when I couldn't sleep last night, I came down and fired up the computer. Your snail promise had really caught my imagination and I was totally excited to see this. I don't get excited much lately - too waiting for the other boot to drop. So this gave my brain a work out in joy I haven't had for a while. Like waiting for a Christmas present. And all he is is a little snail -
ReplyDeleteThank you so much.
That is SO cute, Linda! My daughter has 2 different sizes of knitting mushrooms so we're always looking for ideas for i-cords. This will be so much fun. :)
ReplyDeleteI think I need to make some of these for our Season Corner.
ReplyDeleteThankyou for the pattern, really enjoying your blog.
