Description
A rugby ball in the national colours — four shaped panels alternating deep green and old gold, with a cream lace panel duplicate-stitched onto the front and seven lacing crosses worked over it.
📖 WHAT'S INSIDE
• The full written panel pattern: every shaping row written out with stitch counts before and after (3 sts up to 41 and back over 112 rows, a perfectly mirrored profile), with checkpoints along the way
• The lace panel in full: a per-row width table for the cream oval (rows 37-76, 412 stitches), the printed lace chart drawn from the same numbers, and the seven surface-lacing crosses placed row by row
• Abbreviations & how-to pages — nine step-by-step techniques including duplicate stitch, surface lacing, mattress and ladder stitch
• Dimensioned schematics drawn from the pattern's own counts: the panel profile and the assembled ball
• Yarn totals up front: green 104 m / 52 g and gold 104 m / 52 g (buy 2 x 50g balls of each), cream from one ball
• The full 112-row stitch tracker, and finishing in full: blocking, seaming tip to tip, stuffing with weighed checkpoints
⚠️ SAFETY & CARE
The guide's care & safety page covers fibre fill (about 280 g), keeping stuffing away from little hands during making, and spot-clean care for the finished cushion.
🌿 THE AUSSIE BIT
Green and gold panels and a laced-up front — the ball from every winter Saturday, knitted soft enough to keep on the couch. (Its panel profile is deliberately different from our footy ball — two codes, two patterns.)
