Love the star cushion

Love the star cushion. As a relative newby to crochet I found the pattern easy to do. The yarn is great to use and it grows really quickly. I just had to make another! Great service and great product!

It has stayed in a drawer for over a year because I was too scared to start it. Well. With the help of brilliant videos, I made this basket in one day and am delighted with it. Newly hooked on crochet, I'd say. Charlotte 06/08/2026 Crochet Basket with Handles Pattern As always this cord was excellent As always this cord was excellent. I love working with it.
