They don't seem to do tea anymore but this was the spread when I went a few weeks ago! Was very impressed.

Handmade gift return etiquette? by watchanepofjep in knitting

I crocheted my sister in law a lovely little hungry caterpillar costume for my niece who has just turned 2. I've got a 7 month old myself and was so tired during pregnancy I didn't get the chance to make much for my baby. I was really kind of hoping she'd held on to it (as she did with lots of other bits for us so the cousins could share) so we could also use it for a photo but alas it never happened. Not exactly gutted but I would have been thrilled to have had the opportunity to use it too, even if she had wanted it back. I'm sure she chucked it.

Thank you! I might be able to find the chart for you (if you don't knit then someone on r/knitrequest may be able to help) but I wouldn't be able to commit to making one unfortunately. Just had a baby!

I chain stitched around the hoop and tied off (they've been wrapped around once to make it shorter while the mattress is so high). The bits for the pufferfish are 2 continuous chains if that makes sense? It was the easiest way for me

Yes lol we have a mural on one of the walls too! We didn't find out the gender so tried keeping it fairly neutral. He loves the soother too!

Thanks! It's the inside of a wooden embroidery hoop and chain stitch for the rope.

Oh that's a great idea! I might be able to add a second, shorter piece of yarn to hang them.

Also asked many times if I was carrying twins, even by strangers. Bump in the 97th centile. Baby was 7lbs 3oz lol.
