I had already used the previous 4 cute ‘candy cousins’ pattern with the puppy, frog, elephant and bull. I had knit the puppy and elephant for a charity stall and they turned out so cute that I sent for this latest pattern and am knitting the cat. The instructions are easy to follow and do knit up quite quickly. It’s easy to use up oddments of wool too. The body, legs and head are knit in one piece so there’s only the arms and other tiny attachments to knit afterwards.
Lovely pattern . So far only made rabbit pig-the recipient was delighted with them.
