Lovely "kufi" and the colors are great.
And cotton yarn is another thing which you cannot find here in Lahore, not sure about the other cities. This prayer cap is lovely.
As Salaamu Alaykum Syeda. I am a crocheter and I have been looking for patterns for kufis to make for my husband. May I use these lovely patterns you have? I was led to your page by the 30 day kufi challenge posted by another sister on her blog. I may even make some to distribute at the local masjeed before Eid ... that is of course, if I have your permission to use some of your patterns (I may tweek them a bit).
JazakhAllahu Khair Ukhtee,
Zaaynab Le'Von

Asalaamu Alaikum Warahmatullah Wabaraktuhu, I hope that all is well with you and your family. And that you are having a blessed and beneficial Ramadan. Ameen
I want to make my son a Kufi for Eid. How can i modify this pattern for a little baby boy. He is 1 year old but his head is kinda of bigger than a normal 1 year old lol.
Dear Fatoumata, Wsalaam.
Thank you for liking my kufi. you can use smaller size of hook and 12/8 ( nr 12 or 10 yarn or thread) for adjust size.
Out of all kufi designs I found this was the most easiest.
Shokran and Salam.
Dear Elijah Abdul Rahman, Wsalaam.
Thankyou.
