He is a cute and lovable toy and security blanket all rolled into one. He has long legs that make him fun to hold, and he feels wonderfully squishy.

Jeremiah’s blanket is an 11-inch square, knit flat.
Jeremiah himself is knit in the round.

Techniques used include: knitting flat, knitting in the round, 3-needle bind-off, and standard increases and decreases.

You will need 1 skein each of dark green and light green, plus small amounts of white and black.
