        Hi Nancy! I'm afraid I haven't seen anything quite like that. But you could certainly take a plain slipper pattern and work the rows in black and yellow stripes!

      LOVE that bee lovey! And I just finished the lion one I was making too! I think I'll add the Bee Hives and Clover block to my blanket from the CAL. Love that square ;). And that backpack! No need to say why I love THAT 🙂 It is cute as can "bee" 🙂

      Quisiera hacer un proyecto con el motivo Bee Hives and Clover Afghan Block pero se me dificulta la traducción del inglés al español y prefiero los diagramas. Si alguien tiene el diagrama o esquema agradezco que me lo puedan facilitar o indicar dónde puedo encontrarlo. Muchas gracias

        Entiendo! La mejor recomendación que puedo hacer es ponerse en contacto con el diseñador - ella podría ser capaz de armar algo para usted!

      I've just been over to Ravelry to the Bee Hives and Clover Afghan Block - it doesn't seem to be free any more. (I'm not complaining, just informing. ) 🙂

      I'm not long at crocheting. I started it so that I could make my new granddaughter something different.
      I'm getting on fairly well but I have just been asked to make a Bumble Bee for a friend.
      The patterns here are great but I was just worried on one pointed. In all the tutorials I've looked at, they have said to stay away from black wool as it's almost impossible to find the links (loops). Before I buy some black, is it so difficult? I found dark navy daunting.

        It can be very tricky, it's true - but a bright light, like an OttLite, is a bit help! With my Ottlite, I don't have nearly so much trouble, even with black. 🙂

      Hi, I have just seen the bee blanket link, it states its UK terms but after downloading find it is US e.g. SC 🙁
