Thank you Krista, all these patterns look so lovely. I am not sure which one to start on. I crochet Knee Rugs for our
District Cats Welfare. I am now looking at all your beautiful patterns to try something new. Something that will catch the eye and sell well, and there are so many. I have kept most of the others you have sent me.
Thank you once again
Kind regards
