Bonnie Queen Elizabeth
This pattern was written in honor of Queen Elizabeth’s long reign. It features Diamonds for her tiara and Ropes because She was a Sea Ranger at 16 (this is her Girl Guide company). Later she was in the ATS during the war which is part of the army.
** 17 sizes available in stitch counts of 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, and 72**
You may use your preferred toe, heel, and bindoff. I have written out instructions for an Elegant Toe, a Welsh heel-flap type heel, and I have provided helpful links for other toe/heel constructions if you need them.
The pattern is written for top down or toe-up, and will look great either direction.
