Jurgen the Slug

Lettuce meet your newest fibre friend: Jürgen the super-sized (and super-suave) slug! This broccoli-bothering mammoth mollusc measures 27cm/10¾in in height and is knitted flat on a circular needle. Despite Jürgen’s size, simple shaping techniques make it easy to keep track of where you are in the pattern. They also ensure that your huggable slug's fabulous frill curls up all by itself! Beet(root) that!

All the pieces are knitted flat and seamed afterwards so it's a good idea to seam and stuff the pieces as you go along. Alternatively, with the exception of the base and the bow tie, every piece can be knitted in the round.

You'll be pleased to know that this pattern has been reviewed by a professional technical editor to ensure that it's super-easy to follow!
