The cuff buttons are pink on the left and black on the right Mr HB was at a district committee meeting last night so I watched an ancient episode of Frost and wove in ends for a couple of hours

The wee beastie Jan 2023 1:18pm, 22 Jan 2023 89 posts	0 The wee beastie I am so impressed by everything you have all made. I don't know if any of you will be able to help, but I am looking for a bit of advice. My niece has asked for a crochet kit for her 11th birthday. She does a lot art, drawing etc. but hasn't tried crocheting before. Any ideas on what would be suitable?
