Comments

  1. What is the term trmean? That is new to me. Is it triple crochet?

  2. I made it’s just so cute. I used regular yarn. I think I’ll try the recommended yarn.

  3. I would definitely say this is a US pattern, due to the reference to sc stitch – UK does not use this – they refer to it as dc

  4. It is US pattern because it uses sc which is single crochet in american terms and brittish term is dc (double crochet)

  5. I really think this is a USA pattern.

  6. Patriciajane says
