I always like to
make presents instead of buying them, but Fathers Day managed to
sneak up on me this year. I needed to make something for my Dad
that would be quick to make, and something he might actually use!
My mum had suggested a tissue box cover to hide the tatty looking
box that he kept by his armchair, and I was pretty sure I had a
pattern for one in a magazine somewhere, but I couldnt find the
damn thing anywhere! So I improvised one, and it turned out pretty
well. Dad was pleased Id made him something, and Mum was happy that
the offending box of tissues was now hidden.
I decided to
give the design another go, taking notes this time, using the same
cheep and cheerful (and very fluffy!) aran weight acrylic I used
for my dads present. Again, it was pretty good but the yarn wasnt
quite right for the project, and I was running out of what few
colours I had. So I turned to my stash of gorgeous Lily Sugar n
Cream worsted weight cotton and with a bit of fiddling about I came
up with this!
