A simple leaf motif worked one on top of the other is later joined to the first motif to form the suncatcher.

Although the pattern says one size, you can get different sizes by changing the yarn weight. If you do change the yarn weight, say for instance you would like to use a bulky cotton yarn, then go a size or two smaller when you choose the crochet hook, not the regular hook size you would use for that yarn.

The pattern mentions a local 4ply dk weight yarn available here in India.

Alternate yarns in the US are
LionBrand 24/7 Dk weight cotton
Paintbox Dk weight Cotton
Bernat DK weight Cotton

If you use acrylic yarn, it will not be possible to starch/stiffen the project.

You can personalize this project by adding your own baubles and beads!
