cute but challenging Reviewed by AnD on 2008-08-21
I made one of these for my bf who is crazy about pandas. Though I used a different type of eyelash yarn, it was the same concept and I found it a little difficult to see my stitches because of how messy it got. still, definitely had super cute results. : )
