I saw adoreable turtle tutorial and printed out the instructions but not the pattern. Now I am trying to go to the site to get the pdf. It keeps saying Failure to Connect to Web Site. Anyone know why this is? The cutest thing I have seen, sure hope I can get to it. Thank you very much.
Ardith, The author was having difficulty with the technology required to create an electronic copy of the pattern. She has it all worked out now and has a pattern you can download. Here’s a link to the tutorial post that has the pattern:
