In this pattern, you will have the explanation with photos and written instructions to create a knitted french beret and baguette. (I am left handed, so the photos are from my direction of using the tapestry needle)
The finishing touches requires simple yarn threading to create the marks on the baguette and the stalk of the beret.
This pattern doesn’t include the frog pattern. If you would like to purchase the frog pattern, please visit the shop of Claire Garland @DotpebblesKnits ( the author of the frog pattern and many more!)
