Can anyone tell me how much yarn this pattern needs? I'd like to try it, but I need to use some of my existing stash (far too much ;) )

I really love this pattern but am a bit confussed. I am looking for the rest of the instructions but can't seem to find it. Is this a FREE project so I can download the instructions or do I need to pay for it? I can't wait to get started and finished with pattern. Please contact me with this information. Thanks so much, msmcedee

Absolutely beautiful. I love how the scales almost look like little petals framing your face.

This is so gorgeous. I noticed that amazing book at Annie's and it caught my eye.

Thank you Susan! I am overwhelmed with the success my book is achieving on Annies Attic. It is really a wonderful feeling to know that so many other crocheters like my work. It just makes me want to create more, and more, and more.

Are you familiar with Annies Attic? This looks exactly like their hood with one additional crocodile row added...even the pose is the same....

I am the authour of that book, Kay. My name is Lianka Azulay ;-). I'm pretty happy to say my book is currently number one in sales on the Annies Attic catalog.

It is easy, but I'm biased ;-). In any case, if you feel strugling with any of it, you can ask me for pattern support.

mom2han891408, thanks for your compliment. I think half of the credit goes to the model, my beautiful little sister, Luanna.
