Product Details
This giraffe makes a good Noah’s Ark resident and is an impressive piece to show off your dexterity. It’s fun watching the coloured skin develop as you knit. However, this pattern does require some patience and concentration.
If you’re a beginner and you find the colour-changing too daunting, try the easy version given at the end of these instructions. This is worked entirely in yellow, and you can make patches to sew on afterwards.
Difficulty: Medium. The main pattern is possible for beginners, but patience is required!
Stitches used: kfb, k2tog, p2tog, slip 1
Skills required: Patterning with two different colours of yarn; trapping the spare yarn as you go. (It’s easy to find free video tutorials online which will teach you this technique quickly.)
