Product Details

Pattern pages 1-12: Body and leg variations, assembly instructions, special stitch instructions; pages 13-14: Head and tail, and other details

A koala with a round nose isn’t very difficult, but if you’d like the oblong nose and beard, you’ll have to manage multiple strands using both intarsia and stranding. Fortunately, this only lasts for a few rows. A white triangle patch on the chest looks great, but it isn’t necessary. Fringe stitches on the ears add a fun touch.

You need to have… 

  • Yarn in desired color(s) and weight (~3oz/75g sport weight; ~12oz/350g worsted) 
  • Dark contrast yarn for eyes and nose 
  • Knitting needles at least 2 sizes smaller than those recommended for the yarn 
  • Stuffing 
  • Tapestry needle 
  • Crochet hook for crochet loop or fringe stitch

Notes
Any yarn size or color can be used; just use knitting needles at least 2 sizes smaller than recommended so stuffing doesn't show through stithces
