Took me some time and struggled with choosing the right colors at first, but I'm super happy with how it turned out!

I used this pattern from etsy!

It's great! Looks like something I remember my mom or other people wearing in the 1970s, but you picked much better colors.

It's a beaut, Clark!

Well done! I really like the colours and the pattern. Does the bottom hem have a sawtooth kind of edge? Is it made of diamonds or did you fill in the gaps with triangles?

[–] mourningcrows@mander.xyz 1 points 5 months ago

It's just the diamonds, so yes, it doesn't have a straight bottom hem!

The square tile pattern reminds me of these old pot coasters my grandma had (I can only assume she made them herself). Really nostalgic.

I don't like crochet but that is really nice. I especially like the choice of colors, looks like a butterfly
