Finished spring cleaning? Keep things organised with our storage solutions
Follow HEATHER GIBBS’ changing colour method to create the striking triangles on these geometric storage tubs. Aren’t they fantastic? If you’d prefer to simplify the pattern, it’s an easy fix – just ignore the colour changes and you’ll still achieve a fantastic end result. Oh, by the way... you’ll have enough yarn left in your Cuddle kit to make Heather’s dinky platypus on page 8 too. Yes!
