This pattern was written with intermediate crafters in mind. However, I believe that an adventurous beginner who likes a creative challenge would fair reasonably well with it! Please read my FAQ for more information on the experience level required for my patterns.

I do not, however, explain how to work the basic crochet stitches used. You will need to know basic crochet stitches (including increase/decrease, front/back post), how to work with a magic ring and how to read a crochet CHART. Instructions for how to read my charts are given.
