„Knubbelchen…“
…can snuggle, comfort, encourage
or just conjure a little smile on someone’s face …
Knitting up quickly and small enough to fit into a trave bag,
it makes for a nice little gift for any occasion
Materials:
35g (1.5 oz) sock yarn, approx. 5g of this in a light color for the head, 5g for
the hat and 22g for the body (For smaller children, sock cotton or other cotton
yarn is recommended since it is less prone to pilling.)
Set of 2.5 mm (US 1 or 2) DPNs, or size suiting your yarn weight
Filling to stuff head
Tapestry needle, some cotton waste yarn to hold stitches
4 to 5 stitch markers (experienced knitters can manage without)
