60 and 64.

ReplyDeleteI love minis! I am adding different mini motifs to braids and dangling from chain stitches on my current shawl border. I really love how you showed the way different yarns just shine in minis! We know the use of color is so important in getting a very different look from the same pattern. But switching up the Texture is just as important! I wish I could buy ALL the beautifully textured yarns, each in several color palates, that I have seen! Great post, as always, Sue. And the cover of your new book is GORGEOUS! Hugz!
