June’s #freebeefridayknits!

And because I’m going on holiday this month, to a a hot country, I designed a little friend to take with me… a friend, no less, who’s used to the heat, though I will pack that little sun hat for him!

Pattern-wise - similar to all of my other patterns:
Knitted flat and using pick up and knit for joining parts as you go along
Simple short row shaping
Optional wire armature addition
Lots of making up images to ease you through the pattern
All eye and yarn links that I used I’ve listed and linked to in the pattern
…speaking of yarn - I did use a blend/ two yarn held together and I did knit on very small needles but these two options are only recommendations - you can, of course, knit to any size on any sized needles.

Hope you like my little
