Last year I bought a bunch of new handkerchiefs at a small local shop that was going out of business. And now I enjoy adorning them with lace edgings.
The hankies were quite pretty on their own, but the crocheted edgings added a special romantic charm! I wasn’t very creative and just used the same edging pattern that I used before.
I think a pretty and feminine handkerchief could make a lovely Mother’s Day present! I am going to keep one of these hankies to give my mom on Mother’s Day, and I am going to put the other ones in my Etsy shop.
And I am now searching for other simple Mother’s Day crochet presents to make. Any ideas?
