I however used Vanna's Choice baby yarn and it came out much larger than the pattern. I also had to use way more yarn, not sure how much, but I think I got 9 motifs out of each ball.Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10934660900428793540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8295053245709795851.post-51322737669443216852010-05-28T06:23:34.303-07:002010-05-28T06:23:34.303-07:00Great story!

Her joy and excitement was more than enough to make me keep going and learn to make bigger and better things.

My Grandma did try to teach me to crochet, but we gave up because I had no patience back then, LOL.
