Billy has no mates – will you be his mate???Sitting 3.5 inches high, this funny little chap, will I am sure, be a topic of curiosity and conversation to all that see him.
He is a really quick, simple knit and made flat using a mere scrap of DK or equivalent yarns on 3mm needles.

The pattern is clearly written with pictures to help you along the way.

If you made him in a yarn of clay colour, and added a little nose, he would make a great Morph from the children’s series of times gone by.
