Four Snake Species Plus Basic Snakes Snoo's Knits

This pattern has four adaptations so that you can make different snake species, as well as two basic patterns for a wiggly snake and a spiral snake. The four species are the coral snake, the copperhead snake, the Indian cobra and the eastern diamondback rattlesnake.

These toys aren’t intended for very young children (who would probably prefer a bigger, cuddlier version!) but they are safe as long as you knit them up securely. If you are looking for a simpler snake toy and a relaxing beginner's knit, you might want to look at the separate Snoo’s Knits pattern for the basic snakes only.
