Product Description
This pattern is a continuation of the Comfort Critters, which has proved to be very popular. You can use either double knit/light weight worsted/8ply, use needle size 2.5mm or Aran/worsted weight/10ply, needle size 3mm. The double knit critter works out to be approximately 6.5 inches/16 cms tall and the Aran weight is approximately 7.5 inches/19 cms. You could also experiment with textured yarns such as King Cole Truffle or Peter Pan Precious as I have done with the kitten. I used the 3mm needles without any problems.
The package contains: Kitten; Puppy; Raccoon; Mouse; and Zebra
All the feet/legs/bodies and arms are the same directions, it’s just the heads, ears and tails that vary. I have written up the zebra in full because of the yarn changes on the stripes but all the other critters follow the same basic directions for the feet/legs/body and arms.
Detailed making up guide is included with lots of photos to help.
