    Exclamation looking for a pattern...

    I am looking for a crochet pattern. it used the thinner crochet thread. It is an ornament, shaped like a 3D mouse. the nose is made by glueing on a little black bead, it was done in white crochet thread. After made the project was stiffened using a fabric stiffener. they were adorable...and might be great ornaments for me to make this year...

    much in the same manner as this bell ornament was made is how i remember seeing the mouse ornament. http://www.anniesattic.com/crochet/d...?prod_id=13859 the finished size was about 2'' not including the tail. It looked to be made in two cup shaped pieces that were later joined or maybe glued.
    I may have pruchased this mouse at a craft fair many years back. However through many many moves, I no longer have it to show how it was made.

    I have tons of books Melissa, but have never seen those.

    They are just too cute! I hope you find the book you are looking for.

    I've looked online all over the place & in my books & can't find free patterns for them. Sorry.
    I did find the cutest mice(to buy) when I was looking though.
