He's a very smart and colourful bird who loves to sit in your hand for a cuddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeorge is 14cm \/ nearly 5 inches tall – you'll need oddments of DK yarn to knit him, full details are given in the pattern. I used Styelcraft Special DK but he can be knitted with any DK yarn, making him a great stashbuster.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou'll also need a pair of 4mm (UK 8\/ US 6) knitting needles, 2.75mm (UK 12, US 2) knitting needles and a yarn darning needle,.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIs George easy to knit?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes he is! George is knitted flat on a pair of 4mm (UK 8\/ US 6) knitting needles, making him a great project for a beginner: no need to knit in the round. Basic skills that you need to know: stocking stitch, increasing by knitting into the front and back of a stitch (inc 1) and decreasing by knitting 2 stitches together (k2tog). You'll also be changing colours mid-way through rows. The knitting pattern includes detailed making up instructions and colour photos to help you on your way.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independent Designer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56745394209146,"sku":"UPID160066","price":6.76,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/27ddcdc631bbba74b6aea394d6e3d230c1dd73e1_UPID160066_172866739526278.jpg?v=1775855999","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-au\/products\/george-the-great-tit-bird-knitting-pattern-by-nicky-stewart","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
