Another Yarn Craft

On Thursday the 12th, the ladies in the knit and crochet group asked me about mesh weaving. I explained some of the things I've learned, but didn't have time to do a proper job. There was even a mention of working on mesh weaving for a 4-H project.

Since I couldn't tell them everything I've learned about this yarn craft in the few minutes I was able to spend with them, I'm posting this link to a blog with instructions:

Happy crafting,
