Petal pig is one of the newest residents of Stars Hollow and belongs to proud pig parents Kirk and Lulu. In the Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life season, we learn that the Stars Hollow townsfolk got together and gifted Petal to Kirk and Lulu to save themselves from a baby Kirk. Petal goes everywhere with Kirk now and how perfect is that for our favorite quirky citizen?

The Kirk’s Petal Pig Cloth is knitted in six pieces that create one adorable little piglet. The Body is knitted in the round from rump to neck with simple shaping techniques. The Head, Ears, Snout, and Tail are all knitted to create texture and dimension. The Snout is even puffed up and the Tail curled! Making Petal even more lovable are her sweet eyelashes. This is a cloth that is sure to make you giggle every time you use it.
