THE HONEYBEE’S MESSAGE: You have help
You don’t have to do it all alone. Ask for assistance.
Collaborate with your seen and unseen friends. Use your combined talents.
Hang in there. Help is on the way.

If using the recommended yarn weight and hook size your honeybee will be about 2.75" (7 cm) long (including antennae), with a wingspan of 2.75" (7 cm).
