“Here is part two of your doll’s house furniture

crochet-along! This time we head to the bedroom with a seven-piece suite that’s too sweet for words. Your Posy

kit colours combine beautifully to make a

patchwork blanket for the bed, while your special

eyelash yarn helps to create a soft, fluffy rug. Missed
