Tic-Tac-Toe

Isn't it great when something you see on someone else's blog inspires you.  I love Tangled Happy's blog because Sara features and references lots of lovely ideas from other people's blogs.  Not long ago she featured a lovely crocheted version of the game tic-tac-toe.  The board doubles as a pouch to store the counters in.

Last night I felt inspired to make one for myself.  Here it is.



Very easy to make.  I modified the edging to give a scalloped effect and made the button hole in the backing piece rather than the front piece.  I used two smaller buttons for the closing rather than one bigger one.

A great ideas for small children to take on holiday with them - also a great idea for bigger children to take on holiday with them!!

The pattern comes from Turtle Weenies blog and is available free here.
