Super cute reindeer. Where are the directions for the head, ears, antlers, spots, cheeks, and scarf? There are directions for the legs, tail, and belly and nothing else.
Please sign in to see the whole pattern.
This is a joke!!! Only half of the pattern is available and to get the rest you have to purchase. Not impressed at all on your advertised “Free pattern”..
Please sign in to find the whole pattern.
Great pattern love the reindeer.
Tratare de hacerlo, se ve hermoso gracias por el tutorial. Me queda la duda de que significa en algunas partes sl st. ya que no esta en las abreviaturas, por ultimo en las abreviaturas aparece pb como abreviatura de 2 cosas diferentes.
Gracias por las aclaraciones que me puedan brindar.
Sl st = slip stitch
