Sweet snowflakes from the lovely Lucy at Attic24. They do need a little blocking and stretching but was too excited. Just had to post them.

Oh wow! Those are so beautiful! I can do any kind of needlework but for some reason I cannot knit or crochet! My daughter and sister and mother can, but I just can't seem to get it! Crazy huh? I really envy your beautiful snowflakes!

They're lovely. I've tried quite a few different snow flake patterns and Lucy's are my favourite - easy to make and look most effective. I'm planning to make some more, hopefully tonight.

Lovely ornaments Hazel!

Too cute! These would be cute on my bobbin lace tree but I think it would be too difficult when I am only just learning to crochet. You are going to town with yours.
