Knitted Wild Animal Friends by Louise Crowther

$19.95 $24.99

After the success of Knitted Animal Friends, Louise Crowther has created 12 new knitting patterns of wild animals including a zebra, elephant, lion, tiger, chimpanzee, sloth, koala, bear, hippopotamus, panda, giraffe and even a rhinoceros – all with their own distinct personal style!

The animal dolls all have the same basic body shape and size so that all of the outfits are interchangeable, so you can mix and match your favorites. There are separate instructions for the head, tails and different types of fur where necessary and all of the clothing and accessories.

Louise’s attention to detail means that every outfit fits perfectly and you will enjoy creating all the details that make each one so distinctive. There are instructions for how to construct the animal dolls and outfits as well as step-by-step photography for any unusual techniques. Louise also explains how to follow charts for the colorwork details in the outfits, as well as step-by-step tutorials for any special stitches. Patterns are Intermediate to Advanced. The animals are all approximately 16 inches tall and their long arms, legs and tails are perfect for little hands to hold.

There are so many possibilities for animal and outfit changes so that you can make the perfect doll for the cheeky monkeys in your life.
