This is the first in a series of 24 linked patterns to be published daily in December 2016. The pattern for the box shaped like a book is published separately.

The first pattern is for the chimney breast and the back of the fireplace which are knitted in one piece and sewn to the back wall of the room.

All my ravelry patterns are free to download but, if you enjoy them, please consider making a donation to the Children’s Liver Disease Foundation, a charity which funds research and supports the families of children with a liver disease. You can do this easily by going to my fundraising page www.justgiving.com/frankiesknittedstuff

Happy Knitting!
