Pattern Notes
- The wallet is constructed from small granny squares or solid granny-style blocks that are joined together.
- A cream border is added around the entire piece.
- The daisy is made separately and sewn on after assembly.
- Keep tension even so the squares stay flat and neat.
Step-by-Step Overview
- Squares: Make several small granny squares (or solid squares) in alternating sage green and yellow.
- Assembly: Join the squares into a rectangle for the main body, leaving enough height to fold over as a flap.
- Border: Work a clean cream border around the entire piece.
- Flap & Closure: Fold the top section to form the flap. Add a buttonhole loop or chain loop, then sew the wooden button in place on the front.
- Daisy: Crochet a simple white daisy with a yellow centre and sew it onto the front of the wallet.
- Finishing: Weave in all ends and gently block if needed for a neat shape.
