Knit a cuddly Diplodocus dinosaur toy in chunky yarn.

This dinosaur boy is the newest addition to my collection of dino knits (see also patterns for Chubby Stegosaurus and Rainbow Dinosaur). He’s a great project for knitters who know how to knit, purl, increase and decrease, and a perfect gift to knit for dinosaur-mad boys or girls.
You can also decorate him with colourful circles knitted from any Dk yarn you have in your stash. Knitted on 4.5mm straight knitting needles, he is worked flat, so there is no knitting in the round needed. The body, neck and head is made in one piece so he knits up nice and quickly.

You can make him from any chunky yarn you like but we recommend Stylecraft Special Chunky in Pistachio (shown in picture) Dinosaur measures 32cm tall when completed. Pattern is five pages long including illustrations.
