A is for apple


Designed by D. Arnold, the most ingenious thing about this pattern, is not that the stitch count makes a great shape, its not the cute little inch worm on the side.  It's the seeds. The seeds are black tear drop beads with the hole drilled across the top. They sit so nicely in the core of the apple.

Looking for another snowflake pattern.  Follow the link below the picture to the Forget me not snowflake.  It would look lovely with a crystal / bead in the center.
