As many of you know, I lost this pattern when I transferred my crochet pages to Tripod. One slip of the finger was all it took. Thanks to a wonderful, wonderful person, I now have the pattern once again to post for your use and enjoyment! Many, many thanks to Betty Hammond for emailing me and sending me the pattern. One thing I have learned is to make LOTS of copies, both hard copies and backups of these things.

Betty - you are a dear sweet person. Thanks with all my heart!
