Product Details
A cute and cuddly koala to wrap around your neck – plenty long enough for an adult as well as a child. Knit flat in garter stitch (except for nose and chin), and is quick to make. His head is double so his mouth is big enough to loop his rear end through, to hold the scarf in place round your neck – not many koalas can do this!

grey x 80gms, 220m/240yds
black for nose, mouth, claws x 15m/16yds
pale pink for chin x 5m/yds
optional: 3 m/yds mid brown yarn for eyes Plus • white faux fur or fluffy yarn 10 -12 ply thickness, for front of ears x 20m/22yds
1 pair 4.5mm (US 7) needles (or size to get gauge) tapestry needle for sewing, a few safety pins optional: a pair of 15mm-18mm sew-on “joggle” eyes (not for children aged 3 years or less ) Or a pair of 3.5mm (US 4) needles to make eyes with mid brown yarn
