Took a day to do the knitting, sewed up the sides the next morning and sewed the button on this evening.
It's knitted with Sirdar Crofter wool on 4mm needles.
Not an excellently made product but a good excercise all the same.
Tried some new stitches, 1st attempt at 1x1 Rib. Used Garter stitch at beginning of flap in effort to avoid the curl with stockinette. A little loose adjacent to buttonhole but this is something I'm practising on.
And the first time I've ever sewed a button on something (Thank you to Youtube).
Overall I have to be happy with this. And I hope future projects will only get better.
It should make it into Santa's sack as an extra for someone!
