Mr. Moostachio is not your average knit toy. At 27” tall he’ll tower over most of your other knits! He loves to be hugged and doesn’t mind being used as a pillow. He brings joy and and a unique mustache mystique that’s unparalleled.

Mr. Moostachio is worked in the round from the top of his head down to his charming bowlegged feet. Worked with the Bagsmith’s unique Merino Bumps Mr. Moostachio will knit up much quicker than any other 27” toy!
