Creme de la Creme Yarn choice..
Submitted by crochetgal on Thu, 2009-07-09 14:05.This pattern is beautiful! But I'm quite surpised at the yarn choice - Creme de la Creme to me seems like it would be a little bit heavy.
Doris, you have outdone yourself again with this pattern. It is extremely easy to read and I love your comments!

Response to round 6 question
Submitted by naztazia on Sun, 2009-08-09 16:55."Join with chain 2, dc in first sc" means this... Do 2 chains. Stop. Then instead of like most patterns where you then do a slip stitch into the first single crochet at the beginning to form a round, you instead do a double crochet into that first stitch. What this does is it makes the next stitch of the next round be precisely in the middle of that "hole" formed by the 2 chains and the double crochet.
