Belle's Flowers
Every little girl needs a favorite sweater, why not try this one? It was designed and modeled by my favorite little girl.
Pattern is written in symbols and abbreviations. Cardi is written to have motifs joined by crocheting them together as you go. Which adds strength to the fabric, but if you wish you can crochet all the motifs then whip stitch the motifs together at the end.
