I've been ...All of your snowflakes are amazing! I've been working with a friend to open a booth with my knit and crochet stuff to sell at the walk for the charity she works for (NAMI) and I would love to include these snowflakes, but of course only with your permission. All profit would go towards NAMI, I would only keep what I needed for the supplies, and just so I can buy more supplies to do it all over again! My goal eventually is to hopefully do this with several different events with different organizations. Knitting and crocheting are my biggest passion when it comes to free time that doesn't involve chasing my 6 year old around :D and to be able to use my skills to help others in some small way makes it even better. I think that snowflakes like yours would be perfect for my booth (if I ever get enough items made to even do it, lol) I understand if you rather I don't use your patterns, and promise to not sell anything without your permission first.

What a neat thing you are doing!
Wher...Hi, Gamom! What a neat thing you are doing!<br /><br />Where you are stuck is where you change to the pink thread. This pattern, as written, is a knotty nightmare because you have two ends to weave in on each end of every pink ribbon. One way to get around that is to work tapestry-style, which I didn't think of when I wrote the pattern, and just tie one knot right where you are stuck, carrying the thread not being used under your stitches and behind your work, then making another knot at the end of the sith pink ribbon. Then you have only four ends to weave in on that round.<br /><br />Another way to get around it is to work the entire flake in white and then use a fabric marking pen (from a fabric store or craft store) to color the ribbons pink. (or teal for ovarian cancer) Just let the ink dry for a good long while before you stiffen to prevent runs. Red pigment (which includes pink, orange and purple) is the runniest, even in permanent markers, and something in spray and liquid starch can wreak havoc with red pigment. So I have learned the hard and pink-fingered way not to use starch as stiffener on hand-dyed or hand-colored thread.Snowcatcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06360228352528558176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-85672116916779084482011-11-17T15:20:55.413-07:002011-11-17T15:20:55.413-07:00Oh wow! i love this snowflake..I have been looking...Oh wow! i love this snowflake..I have been looking for something to make for my fundraising this year and by golly I think I've found it! My mom in law and me have been doing the Atlanta 2 Day Walk for 5 yrs now and the Susan G. Komen Mothers Day walk for the past 12 yrs in Atl. The 2 Day is very similar to the 3 Day but we only walk 30 miles and get to go back to a hotel. But the fight is the same...anyhoo, my ? is on rnd 4 it says to ch3, ch2, change colors. What am I missing? I'm sorry, sometimes I get a brain fog..especially crocheting ALL day. Thank you in advance for creating this beautiful piece...Happy crocyclling!Gamomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05937749037716764655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7672125489692725745.post-73091932891590239162010-02-25T13:34:09.978-07:002010-02-25T13:34:09.978-07:00Your snowflakes are simply beautiful.
