Thank you for the links. I’ve been looking for help as I downloaded a book of Hello Kitty patterns that are all in japanese. This will be a tremendous help. Hopefully I will be able to make something.
Thanks so much for this site! Got a couple of really nice Jap crochet books but can’t speak much less read Japanese! The diagrams help but need to know the numbers and some instructions as well. Great site!
