Thank you so much for this tutorial by the way I did the French knot instead of crocheting the buttons so that’s an alternative for anyone who wants it 🙂
hey, I think that in the 3rd round of the hat, you might have accidentally put ‘FLO’ even though I think it’s ‘BLO’ could you please solve this error?
(BTW thanks @louiesloops for this tutorial I rlly loved it)
