The Snowflake (Loretta Spears Designs 1996)

The Snowflake

The Snowflake is a round pointed ornament published under Loretta Spears Designs in January 1996.   I believe this was the last ornament chart Loretta ever published although she did mystery projects through 2000.  Note that there is another ornament called Snowflake, published in 1994 that is square and turned on point to make a diamond shape.

Needleartnut stitched this in blue (below).  The model Loretta stitched herself was in bluish white (above).  You can read about the original threads and the blue ones that were substituted here.  All photographs courtesy of Needleartnut.
