Toys from the Toybox Part II

** **

After publishing Toys from the Toybox I had a lot of requests for more characters. Hence the need to publish a Part II to the Toybox.

In this set we have Bunny; Cub Bear; Donkey; Elephant; and Puppy, all stand at 11 inches/28cms. 

If these are being given to a baby I would suggest knitting these with nice soft cotton Aran/worsted weight yarn but I have had great results using acrylic and wool yarns too. 

For an older child/adult of course you can use a variety of textured, furry/fuzzy yarns. There are so many readily available today that we are quite spoilt for choice. Please see yarn suggestions below to see what I have already tried.

If you wish to use double knit please lower your needle size to 3mm/3US. Your character will be a little smaller. 

The eyes are embroidered; I have included details in the step-by-step assembly guide to help you. You could of course use safety eyes; I would suggest 15mm in size.
