                Knit, knit as quick as you can!!! Because you’ll be wanting to make lots of these cute little gingerbread men! Pop them in Christmas stockings, or add them to your tree decorations. You could tie them onto to gifts, wouldn’t one be a great embellishment on a box of home- made gingerbread men?

                His head, body and legs are knitted flat in one piece. Simple increases are used to shape the tops of the arms. The arm stitches are then slipped onto stitch holders whilst you knit the body and legs.

                I guide you through every line so confident beginners will be able to make this toy.

                Placement stitches show you exactly where to position the eyes and full alternative instructions are included for embroidered eyes/ buttons.

                Check the recommended needle size for your yarn and use a needle 1 size smaller. This will give a close textured stocking stitch which will hold its shape well when stuffed

                • 4 page Illustrated Knitting Pattern
                • US Imperial Measurement / Metric Measurement

                My sketch book is always full of new toy and doll characters waiting to be created in yarn.

                I love bringing them to life with my knitting needles!

                I spend my days in my sunny studio with my Siamese cat for company.

                Surrounded by colourful yarn, my hands are busy clicking the knitting needles or sketching current ideas.

                I create dolls and toys to celebrate the seasons and important times in people’s lives, Christmas and Easter- New babies and snuggly tired toddlers.

                In between creating new dolls and teddy bears. I’ve created patterns for knitting magazines and worked with retail firms to create knitting kits.

                I started out selling my knitted and felted bags at Craft and Design events where I enjoyed meeting other knitting enthusiasts.

                It was these knitters who convinced me to publish my patterns for others to enjoy.

                I do hope you enjoy your knitting project and if you would like to read more about my work please visit my website www.clairefairalldesigns.co.uk
