PATTERN NOTES
The chalet is constructed in pieces then sewn together to create the A-frame structure.
There are two base plates that become the floors, two long beams for the sides of the walls, one top beam and a front wall.
The roof is made in two parts, joined together at the top.
To give the structure stability two pieces of cardboard are added
into the floors, and bamboo skewers are added to the beams.
