Crafty Intentions CROCHET PATTERN Hot Air Balloons (printable PDF-file / 39 pages)
Developed by Megan Lapp aka Crafty Intentions, this is a Hot Air Balloon Pattern!!! This pattern is written in U.S. terminology.
This pattern comes with instructions to make Hot Air Balloons!! There are TWO different options for Hot Air Balloon styles!! You can make a Solid Bodied Hot Air Balloon or you can make a Hot Air Balloon with Vertical Panels! Then there are MANY ways to further customize your balloon with decorations, swag, bunting and bobbles!! This pattern features clear step by step instruction with a lot of row-by-row photos. The gauge is not crucial to the pattern as long as the stitches are tight enough to hold stuffing.
This pattern is a total of 39 pages containing a full set of written instructions with photographic illustrations, and there are video tutorials for particular steps and stitches available on my YouTube channel. This Pattern consists of ONE PDF File, and the last 10 pages are Text-Only, Printer-Friendly instructions, but I strongly recommend you still refer to the photographic illustrations throughout the pattern if you have any questions.
