Plate of Snowflakes

[MommaChelle]

When Julie (yarngirl) was my autumn secret pal she sent me a snowflake in thread crochet leaflet along with some white crochet thread. Well yesterday I did my first snowflake! And I kept going and made 4 more snowflakes. After 5 were made, I washed them and they are drying on a plate before I starch them. Here's the snowflakes I've done, in order crocheted, before tucking in the ends!

 

Plate of Snowflakes

 

My first snowflake

 

This one took the longest to crochet

 

Medium size snowflake

 

 

My favorite so far

 

 

And last but not least

 

 

The stitches are not as open as the photos shown in the leaflet, but I still think they are pretty

Wow, those are really nice! I bought the same book for myself but I don't think I've made any from it yet. I also bought five others around the same time. Yes, I'm crazy!

Thanks everyone! You know, just from washing the thread it made the snowflake more stiff. Im just going to use spray starch for it Im thinking to stiffen it a little more then add the thread to hang.
