    I freaking love this pattern. I haven’t finished it yet, I ran out of the colour I’m using, but from what I do have (about ⅔ of it complete), it seems awesome.

    This tutorial is very detailed, with lots of photos, which makes each step easy to follow. I changed up the colour scheme, as I wanted to make something different and special for my parents’ sapphire wedding anniversary- they loved it!
