Notes

I crocheted a larger rug than the pattern, and modified the border by using fewer rounds and ending in a contrasting colour. This project needed perseverance but it was worthwhile!

Inspired by the pink one crocheted by Sandy at http://teacuplane-sandy.blogspot.com.au/search/label/Ging...
Sandy noted a lack of pictorial help available re carrying yarn.

Because of this, I have put together a tutorial on how to carry yarn, join new colours and weave in ends as-you-go - see my blog here
