Dilly Dino is always trying to catch his tail, but it is just to short.

He is a quick stash buster and fun gift to give. Look in your left over yarn and pick the colors you want. His head and legs are sewn on and the body is one piece. The eyes are embroidered but you could use safety eyes. The specks along his back are optional. Gauge is not critical, just come close and make sure your stitches are tight. You don’t want his insides coming out.

Here is a special Thanks to isitsandsews for saying she like him and inspiring me to add this pattern.

You will need to know how to:
Make a stitch
Kitchener Graft
Knit in the round
Place stitches on hold and work remaining stitches
Pick up and Knit stitches (just a few)
Magic Loop Cast on ( here’s my video on how to do this https://youtu.be/9SJZc2lTmb8 )

I made this pattern with my Sister in mind but she is just not ready for knitting in the round. Go ahead and try knitting in the round, it really is not that hard. Here’s my video on how to do knitting in the round.
