This book is a great resource for creating accessories. To use it, simply pick a design you like and follow the step - by - step instructions. When choosing yarn, make sure it matches the recommended type in the book. As you work on your project, keep your stitches even for a better result. After finishing your accessory, you can wash it gently by hand in lukewarm water with mild detergent. Lay it flat to dry to avoid stretching. Store your finished pieces in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
