  1. how cute! I’m not really out there when it comes to fashion but this is adorable!
    p.s. I think the “m” stands for make 1(increase) but thats just me.

    this tie is sooo cute….i kind of have an obsession with ties….like im making a skirt out of ties

  3. In all my decades of knitting I’ve NEVER run across “m”. Is this actually “p” for pearl?
