I haven't tried ironing anything though so that could well work a lot better.Rainy Day Crafterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11237956256737657580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067372871243530051.post-40600823608803911162011-10-04T22:28:49.738+02:002011-10-04T22:28:49.738+02:00Your fine crochet is so beautiful and delicate.

That's one of the reasons why I avoid using it, along with the fact it hurts my hands to knit with it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10320479482884046928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067372871243530051.post-62143761469602127452011-10-04T13:07:22.749+02:002011-10-04T13:07:22.749+02:00Lovely.Lovely.Stelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08945408396434091632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4067372871243530051.post-18480394633985080212011-10-04T12:08:26.065+02:002011-10-04T12:08:26.065+02:00A-MA-ZING!
