I've been looking for a small stool that was just
the right size for my husband to put his feet on.
I found one on the curb that was
a bit torn but was the perfect height.
I originally planned to sew a cover for it
but I've been looking for ways to
use up my stash yarn so that is when
I decided to crochet this cover.
The centre part is the free pattern
called Sunburst granny by Priscilla Hewitt.
I continued working double crochet in rounds,
adjusting the fit as I went which was sometimes
difficult because my cat pounced on top of it
each time I tested to see if it fit.
I made 2 rows of each colour and when I reached
the edge I continued making double crochet but
with no increases.
I also worked the first row that went over the edge
into the back loops only so it would fold over nicely.
Here is a picture showing a peek at the stool
and also to show how it is removable so
that it can be washed.
