Snowflake Santorini
"This lacy snowflake is fast and easy to make. So, make a bunch of them and decorate your house or give them as gifts to family and friends! Have a very Merry Christmas! For the big snowflake, I used cotton thread size 10 and a 2 mm steel crochet hook. Its final size is 9 cm (3½ inches) in diameter. The small one is crocheted with size 20 cotton thread and a 1,25 mm steel crochet hook and it measures 6,5 cm (2½ inches) in diameter. Here you will also find a very helpful blocking template. "
