Miles is a cuddly friendly crocodile that would make a super gift for kids of all ages. Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, the crocodile is knitted in acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round). The textured scale pattern is created with a cable pattern, and instructions on how to c4b (cable four back) and c4f (cable four front) are included in the pattern. For confident beginners and above, other techniques used include casting on and off, knits, purls, increases and decreases, and seaming to finish.
Contains:
- Instructions for making the crocodile and photos.
- A materials list and recommended yarns.
- The pattern is 6 pages and written in English.
- Measurements are in metric.
Materials you need at home:
- A pair of straight 3.5mm knitting needles (US 4)
- A cable needle
- Double knitting yarns (DK or light worsted weight)
- Black beads (or buttons) for eyes
- Toy filling
