Give your bow some depth and do 3!!!!
To make the smallest bow

Follow the above directions with the E hook but only ch 9 to start with. ( 8 hdc in first row)


Will you use your bow for some Chiq Giftwrap? Will you add it to a headband ( http://crochetchiq.blogspot.com/2012/04/basic-slightly-wavy-headband-part-of.html ) ?
Will you add it to a purse, or a granny square? Comment below!

Thread Cross Bookmark

I used Aunt Lydia's Crochet thread and a size D hook. Make a magic circle Round 1 Ch3, 2dc, ch2, 3dc, ch2, 3dc, ch2, 3dc, ch2 and join. Sides and top of cross Ch3 2dc, ch2, dc3 in any ch2 sp. Turn and *sl to ch2, ch3,2dc, ch2,3dc. *Turn and repeat * repeat everything in this step 3 more times. Cut thread and weave in ends at the ends of the sides. Bottom of the cross When you get to the last side repeat the * section 2 more times for a total of 4 shells for the bottom and 2 shells for the sides not including the center. On the top of the cross attach yarn and chain 26, skip the first 5 and sl to the first chain. Then I added a tassel.
