Based on the main character in the children’s book Guji Guji by Chih-Yuan Chen, this soft knitted croci-duck is sure to please his biggest fans. Knit in the round using provisional cast ons and short rows, the body is knit as one piece with the legs attached separately. Use any wool and needles to match the gauge, or knit in a different gauge to change the size of Guji Guji. Just be sure that your gauge is fairly tight to avoid seeing the stuffing between stitches.
