Product Details
This shark is a knitted marvel, even his pointy teeth are knitted. And with only two short seams he's a perfect project for the knitter who doesn't like to sew. This pattern was created for my (then) 4 year old. "Mom, can you knit me a shark?" Who can resist a design brief like that?
For an INTERMEDIATE knitter, mostly knitted in the round in one piece with some areas worked flat, there are lots of picked up stitches, some increasing and decreasing and the teeth are made with short row shaping.
SKILLS REQUIRED Garter (knit) Stitch; Stockinette Stitch; Provisional Cast On; Knitting in the round on dpns; M1L & M1R; SSK & K2tog; Sewing together using running stitch; Picking Up stitches; Short Row Shaping (fully explained in the pattern)
MATERIALS REQUIRED 70 yds Gray Worsted Weight yarn; 10 yds Pink Worsted Weight yarn; 5 yds of Sport Weight yarn for the teeth; US size 6 (4mm) dpns; US size 1 (2.25mm) dpns; stitch holders; stitch markers; tapestry needle; scrap of black yarn for the eyes
