These are just spectacular. The designer has posted an instructional video that is practically a Crochet Along. Watch it if you like, but I didnt have a spare 1 hours so I just skimmed parts. The excellent photo tutorial covers the same information so thats what I would use. Ill have to look for 4 ply crochet cotton because I dont remember seeing anything that thick. Im willing to bet that Lion Brand Bon Bon would work just as well.
