I got busy with the ripples.

To make a neat seam, I did a row of single crochet along each sidebig S6a bigs1

And then sewed up using mattress stitch, worked from the right side. bigS4

    • Oooo glad you like it, Big Sister chose the colours, but her Mum did not want too much yellow, so I snuck in a stripe – I love making the little ones’ ideas and colour choices come to life. The buttons were a real lucky find, in a tiny shop just down the road from where they live in London.
