It started out innocently enough with Professor Oh’s Korean classes for my 5th grader.
Little did I know when he asked to learn Korean that 1-year later I would be a Korean Drama addict.
Yes it’s true this mom with a hook is now a mom with a k-pop addiction.
Why am I mentioning this you may ask?
This is the inspiration for the pattern I’m sharing with you today.
The Drama: Heaven’s Postman with Han Hyo Joo (my favorite actress) and Jae Joong.
Jae Joong is a postman to the dead.
It’s a melodrama and a love story.
What caught my attention? The crocheted and knitted designs used in wardrobe.
In this particular movie the lead actress wears a cherry necklace and bracelet throughout.
