Skill level
Enthusiastic beginner with knowledge of puff stitches and extended stitches. You learn these stitches by following along with the video tutorials (the links are on the second page).

Finished size
When working with lace-weight yarn, the length of a motif is about 8 cm or 3.5″. The height of a motif is about 5 cm or 2″ at the highest point.

When using thicker yarn, the motifs will be longer and taller.

Notions
For a lacy edge, use lace-weight yarn. For a thicker edge, you can use any other yarn.

Yarn lengths will vary depending on the length of the border.

For a single motif in lace-weight yarn you will need about 3-4 meters of yarn. For thicker yarns, you will need more per motif.

For lace-weight yarn, use a 3- or 3.5-mm hook for an airy border.

For other yarns, use the hook recommended for your yarn.
