Try out simple colour-working with our cute whale knitting pattern. Part of our brand new Summer 2022 range.
Suitable for anyone who has mastered the knitting basics, these whales are knitted in chunky yarn on straight knitting needles (worked flat rather than in the round, the pattern uses simple increasing and decreasing to shape)
To make your whales you will need: 4.5mm straight knitting needles, some chunky yarn, sewing needle, toy stuffing and some 6mm toy safety eyes.
Once purchased, your pattern will be emailed to you instantly so you can get knitting!

Yarns we recommend for this pattern
You can use any chunky weight yarn you like, but we used:

- The pink whale uses Scheepjes Chunky Monkey in colour 2013 Punch.
- A ball of Hayfield Bonus Chunky in colour 961 for the white.
(As a guide to quantities, you can make three whales from one ball of the Paintbox Simply Chunky/one ball of Hayfield Bonus Chunky combination)
