Happy knitting!
Dear knitter, because my English is out of the school, itis not very good, I try my best to translate my German patterns for the English speaking community on Ravelry. If you find any errors, or if you have any questions about the pattern, or if it is not understandable, please feel free to contact me over PM on Ravelry (my user name is cdknuddel ) so that I could learn and correct my errors! Thanks in advance for your help! Greets Claudia
