Can you use 100-% cotton instead of mixed cotton blend
Yes, you can 🙂
Love the patterns…thank you
hi there, how do you sew the head to the shell part? thanks!
Hello!
I have a problem – which color of yarn do you use to sew the bottom part to the upper one ? I thinkt if I use green it will be visible on the brown part and reverse. Thanks!
Hi Ola! 🙂 Use invisible stitching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbE5hXt27uU
I made the snowman so easy to follow I can’t wait to make more of your patterns Thank you so much
Enjoy! 😊❤🌸
Thank you!
I live in the U.S. and cannot find YarnArt Jeans yarn. Perhaps if I know the weight of the yarn, I could find something comparable. Can you help with that? Thanks!
Hi DocFessor, the weight is 160 m / 50 g. It’s a semi-cotton yarn (55% cotton, 45% acrylic).
Graciasssss todo muy maravilloso 😘😘😘😘😘
