Crochet carpet like a candy

I made this crochet carpet for a little girl, called Lotta. Her room has some pastel colors ....

.. so I looked for some inspiration for the color scheme in candies .. (the blue is actually mint green and the red is more pink)

First I made a prototype for Lego Friends girls - Emma and Stefanie - to test the pattern.

Then, 3 kg of tricot was the starting point for the real carpet...

 

 ... and then I sat down and started crocheting... few hours ...

 

 

... when the carpet was ready, some pink tricot was left over. So Lotta got a little pink basket, matching the carpet, as well.

 

 

 

Now, another friend wants a carpet for her summer house. Back to the yarn store ...
