Queen Bee Set
I decided to dub this set “Queen Bee” due to the way the beautiful stitch pattern reminds me of a honeycomb. It is very simple in concept, but a little challenging when working in the posts. I have labeled it intermediate, but once you get the hang of it, you’ll be “buzzing” through it in no time! I have included links to video tutorials to help with the most complicated portions of this pattern.
Supplies Needed:
-450-475 yds of any worsted weight yarn (size 4) to make entire set.
-Crochet hook in recommended size by yarn manufacturer (found on yarn sleeve). I used the I (5.5 mm) and J (6.0 mm) hooks for mine.
-Tape measure
-Scissors
-Yarn needle
-Embellishments (optional)
