Hey there! This pattern is absolutely amazing and I LOVE it! l (: I was just wondering if you give permissions to people looking to sell the finished product of this pattern?

Thanks ! Jess.

Hi: I'm sorry i'm new in this kind of pattern but I don't know about abbreviations, can you tell me what does mean CC?

Joy Mills said...

Hi, Nora. My best guess is that CC stands for center color.

Joy Mills said...

Oh, nevermind. CC stands for contrasting color! If you look where the materials are listed, it says so.

Unknown said...

Hi. So when you say in the dc do you mean at the top or actually in the stitch itself?

There are some attention-grabbing time limits on this article however I don’t know if I see all of them heart to heart. There may be some validity however I'll take hold opinion till I look into it further. Good article , thanks and we wish more! Added to FeedBurner as properly online casino bonus
