It is very pretty pattern. Is it possible to make a video. I looked all over the web and it just has in french.
As yet no video tutorials on this site but it is something I am looking into creating!
So am I slipping inverse stitches on the purl rows or am I just purling all the way across?
Purling all the way across.
