About

Inspired by the Queen Victoria Building, I think this pattern reflects the central dome with staircase and different floors. I used a victorian colour palette in Stylecraft Special DK.
This pattern is rated intermediate, but has good detailed instructions, with a support group on Facebook.
I finished after Part 10 and added a simple border of hdc and bphdc to reflect the end of parts 9 and 7.

  Thanks Alison - this will be the most complex project I've tried so far. I've joined a Facebook "Hooked on Sunshine" group for help and support! They do CALs, but this one was from a while back.
