    I wonder how old the chair is ?

    Sort of like clothes, they always used to be made with the extra length, tucks etc to let out as the child grew - who remembers having a double layer 2 inch hem ????  😁

    Not sure, @June1952 but my nephew has one each for his 2 kids .... he would be About 40 now I think? Kids are about 3 and 7.

    Yes, and things were also made to last and pass down ... not chucked out after 6 months use!

    Good idea! I'm so happy now I've started making time for it again and it has been a wonderful way to keep my mind off all the cancer stress, lockdowns and so on.

    Thanks to @AllyJay I have just finished two Bow tie scarves with left over 8ply yarn.  They have come up a treat and are part of a collection for a fund raiser silent auction. 
    Great pattern so once again thank you @AllyJay
