This is a fun, quirky and quick project that takes just a few hours (depending on how much monkeying around you do!).

It is knitted using straight needles and made up in two parts, the outer part (skin) and the inner part (flesh). The outer part of the banana has cables along it, making it one classy banana.

This pattern is available for free on my blog. For an ad-free version, you can buy the PDF.
