Supplies Used:
Aunt Lydia’s Size 10 Cotton Crochet Thread. white
1 steel hook size 6 (1.80mm)
Dollar Tree Frame 4in (10.2mm) square.
I used this one.
Dollar Tree silver metallic marker.
Steps to prepare the frame.
I pulled the stand off the back of the picture frame.
Then I lifted cardboard back to get the insides out.
I replaced the glass (if you want this water tight, use hot glue seal around the glass). Then I cut a white surrounding mat.
Next I cut a piece of white paper the same size as the inside of the frame and painted that with the silver metallic pen to match the frame.
Last, I placed the finished crochet piece on top of the glass (centered in the mat), and put the back cardboard piece back on and used hot glue to hold everything in place.
See below for the crochet patterns in both US and UK terms.
