Scraps Chaps
The second version of the pattern, with cat, dog, rabbit, and pig, is shown in the first 5 photos. The original pattern is shown in the last picture.
This pattern is the perfect way to turn your yarn scraps into unique and adorble toys! The pattern includes directions for all four animals: a cat, a dog, a pig, and a rabbit. These toys can be knit from a single yarn, or from yarn scraps of different colours and/or textures. For the best results, you will need at least 30 m of each yarn, and they should all be the same weight. Be sure to have a bit of extra yarn, because the amount you need depends on how many joins you have between yarns.
