Have you seen this before

it's just stocking stitch and its the stripes that create a fabulous effect. I have made 4 so far and I back them with flannel. I have just sorted out my yarns to do pinks/purples etc for a baby girl. Whats really good is that it's a free pattern, my next one will have buttons instead of the french knots.
