Against animal Cruelty and Abuse Ribbons



This Crochet Pattern can be made as a Dog or pet collar, 
and a Wristband for you!

See The Video on my Youtube Channel
 at This LINK
The original pattern was designed for the 
"Animal Abuse and Cruelty to Animals" colors, 
which are orange and purple. 
But it works great for all causes.
This Pattern has a few options
You can make the Ribbon 1 color or 2 colors.
 And you can make the band with 1 color or 2 colors.
Which is great, because some awareness Ribbons have
 more then 1 color.
