Skunk Baby is a simple pattern that is easy enough for a beginner, and knits up very quickly. The body is knitted in the round with black yarn, and the white stripes are knitted flat and seamed on afterward. The tail is made from pieces of the same yarn and one pipe stem cleaner. Finished Skunk Baby is about 6 inches long, not including the tail.

A photo tutorial on how to make the tail can be found on my blog at: http://rabbitholekints.blogspot.com/2012/07/skunk-baby-ph...
