Note to Customers:
Please be aware that all of my patterns use the KLL (knit left loop) or KRL (knit right loop) increase methods.
These are nearly invisible increases that help maintain a super clean look of the fabric.
A charming knitting pattern featuring two sweet ducklings - a classic little Mallard and a soft white duckling companion. With gentle details and a cozy, handmade feel, this design captures the simple joy of a pond-side friendship in miniature form. They’re just the right size for little hands, making them perfect for cuddles, imaginative play, and on-the-go adventures. Ideal as a thoughtful baby shower gift, delightful Easter décor, or a heartfelt handmade keepsake for duck lovers and knitters alike.
