These sweet Little Loveys (Set 2) are knit in the round, using Magic Loop or double pointed needles, and are knit from top to bottom, as one piece. Ears and tails are knit separately and added later. Only the head, “hands” and “feet” are stuffed. The body, “arms” and legs are NOT stuffed. The body, “arms” and legs are knit in Garter Stitch. The head, “hands” and “feet” are knit in Stockinette Stitch. Intarsia is used to place the contrast color patches on some of the heads. Approx. 9” tall (without the ears), they are worked in worsted wt. (Aran/10-ply) yarn, using approx. 115 total yds. They take little yarn, so they’re great stash-busters and wonderful craft table items. Definitely make adorable gifts! Whether you choose a hippo, monkey, cow, lamb or dragon, these darling little loveys are easy grab ‘n’ goes that can fit just about anywhere. Little Loveys (Set 1) is also available.
