What you need
7mm Needles
2 Strands of velor wool (double worsted 8 ply yarn)
Instructions
With 2 strands cast on 24sts.
Work in Garter stitch until work measures 31 inch.
Cast off.
Sew side seams with small folded flap at one end (like a pillow case)
Sew two buttons on the folded section as shown in the picture.
Because you are using large needles, you should be able to pull aside a section for the button hole.
You can brighten it up a bit by adding a second color as shown in the picture.
Using orange add 2 stripes of orange (8 rows) on the other side.
We did a triangle:
11 stitches in brown, 2 stitches in orange, 10 stitches in brown.
P1 row brown.
10 sts in brown, 4 stitches in orange, 10 stitches in brown.
P1 row brown.
Continue in this manner until you reach 1 stitches in brown and 20 stitches in orange, 2 in brown. Then follow the same sequence, this time begin decreasing the orange.
