The Royal Bow Crochet Pattern
There was that time I put the question on my Facebook page, “What is the biggest size bow you’d like to see?”
The very first comment was, “Ginormous. The bigger the bow, the closer to God.” I laughed and replied, “It could be like a royal wedding.”
It was funny, but I couldn’t believe how many people wanted a gigantic bow. So here it is.
