Notes

Pattern test for @Willow.andWild on IG.

Important!!

When adding the beads for the headlights and tail lights, remember to allow slack so they aren’t too tight - otherwise the inline beads will pop out like the beads for the wheels.

1st car: Ambulance v1.
Added the neon yellow/ green blocks as a single row high, 2 sts wide.

2nd car: Orange car.
Reminded me a bit of my 1st car, an orange Citroën Dyane. The pattern in its purity!

3rd car: Ambulance v2.
Added indicator lights. Changed the neon yellow / green blocks to be 2 rows high, 2 sts wide.
