I love it, it has such a summery vibe that makes it PERFECT for this season. I'll love to watch its progress!

I had a little problem - when I did a lot of one colour, and then realised I should have done it one stitch over....... and had to unpick the lot!!!!!! :oops: :( :oops:

Don't you just hate it when that happens???!!!!!!!! :D :D
