hi. this is beautiful. i came across the pattern on ravelry and it's listed as crochet but it's clearly knitting. bummer.
gasp. i am so sorry, it *is* crochet, it just looks like knit.
it's a stitch i've never worked with before.
Sorry about that!!!
Thats ok! I would suggest looking up tunisian crochet or watching some you tube videos. I link to some great resources in the pattern.
I think you'll find it fast and easy! :)
This is the best pattern I have seen for these! I have four kiddos, so I am going to make one of each house..heehee. Feeding my HP addiction. The tunisian stitch is so easy once you get the hang of it. I was always intimidated by it before but once I tried...super love! :) Thank you so much for sharing your patterm!!
