🦁 Zen Tangle Lion – New Crochet Pattern! 🦁
 
I’m absolutely thrilled to present my latest design: Zen Tangle Lion… Roaaarrr!
As a big lover of all cats – large and small – I simply had to Zen Tangle the king of the jungle… the mighty LION.
 
As many of you have come to expect from my patterns, this one is available in two techniques:
🧶 Overlay Mosaic Crochet
🧵 Interlocking Filet Crochet
 
Zen Tangle Lion is fully symmetrical, making it suitable for both left- and right-handed crocheters. (Left-handed crafters – just keep an eye on the eye placement; special notes are included in the pattern for you!)
 
Included in the pattern:
🧶 Overlay Mosaic Crochet
🧵 Interlocking Filet Crochet

✔️ Envelope-style border
✔️ Instructions and tutorial links to my YouTube channel
