The Giraffe In A Scarf knitting pattern is here!
This little guy is knitted in gorgeously soft West Yorkshire Spinners Chunky Roving Re:Treat yarn with Stylecraft Special Chunky for the little pink feet and very long pink-and-red scarf (perfect for the windy Spring weather we’re having!)
He’s worked flat in knit stitch on 4.5mm straight knitting needles, and is suitable for those with some knitting experience. Giraffe’s body is made in two pieces- a front and a back- which are then sewn together. The legs are knitted separately and attached afterwards.
Giraffe measures 38cm tall when completed, and is a lovely companion for blustery Spring walks.
Once purchased, your pattern will be emailed to you instantly as a downloadable PDF so you can get knitting!
