Thanks for the cute ornament it worked up without any problems. I can’t wait for the next one
What a great pattern! And it works up so fast!
Seriously, so cute!
It took me about an hour to get it done.
I was just curious how you did the stripe?
I tried one in a thin yarn and tiny hook and it turned out cute. The pattern is very easy to follow. It looks cute as is, but you could add embroidery or other embellishments if you wanted to.

Meredith, the stripe was actually just the way the yarn worked up! It wasn’t intentional, but I liked it. To make a stripe, you could do the first 2 rows in your main color, switch to another color for 2 rows, and then back to your main color for the rest.
So cute!
This is so cute, but I think I will add a few more rows at the bottom because I am tall and I like thing longer. As if I am going to wear this. Ha!
