Crocheted Footstool Cover

After browsing Pinterest (which I LOVE), I found a sweet little granny-square stool cover:

I was in the process of painting a little step-stool in a cream color. I originally thought about cutting some cute little images of feet out of vinyl to put on the top. THEN I saw the above picture.

Being someone who likes FAST projects, I grabbed some acrylic yarn, my size J crochet hook, and did some simple rows of half-treble stitches to cover the top.

I'm thinking this way, it will be a "skid-proof" way to use the stool. Anyone else have kids that are accident-prone??
