yes it is not taught even today hugs

Very nice !!! My mother made these many yrs ago. She does not speak or read English, she counted and copied the stitches. That is how I learned also but we used very fine DMC thread. One Christmas everyone got crochet hankies from me. I learned to read the instructions when I was in 10th grade from a friends mother.

We-learned this in grade 5 at school lover to crochet thanks hugs

Very unique design. Wonderful idea for the open part on the basket for the wash cloth or whatever extra gift you want to include. Wonderful job getting it attached to the towel.

I call it my funeral basket as that's what the teacher called them 55 years ago the flowers were in baskets like these remember???

I also have never seen anything like this. Great job Carolyn. I'm sure she will love her gifts. Keep up the good work. :)

Wow I have not seen anything like this before either. Looks like it took ages

Oh wow, overall it is totally beautiful. Great idea, colours & work.

it looks beautiful

That is awesome..Beautiful. Wonderful memory also I must say..

First, its amazing you remembered after that long ago!-lol- Just kidding you, friend. This is totally different, from anything I've seen on towels and looks like its open and a goody inside! The color reminds me of a doily my mom had. Good work!

I have never seen this type of crochet on towels. So lovely.

you did a lovely job on this ~hugs~

I love it, you learned well in grade 5. How long does it take to make this?

Bev, didn't you know? She's been at it since fifth grade, just she stopped to do all the embroidery, she ever put on Cute! -lol-I am shamefully, in a teasing mood.
Knowing Carolyn, she could do it in her sleep. The Cutie's a workaholic!
