SPIRAL DREAM CATCHER

Spiral Dreamcatcher - free crochet project from Sweet Nothings Crochet

Today come and join me as we make this beautiful crochet Spiral Dream catcher. I've used an Indian cotton thread with a 1.75 mm crochet hook but this pattern can be used in several ways - your imagination is the key!
