About time we had a dinosaur around here - especially a very green and friendly one!

Mine is knitted flat, joining on sections as you go to eliminate loads of joining little parts.

I’ve added wire in the horns on mine but if you’re knitting yours for young children you may wish to just stuff them firmly instead.

Speaking of wires, feel free to add an armature or even weighted beans into the body to give your dino extra weight and support - needed if you want to have a go at animation!

Apart from that - a fairly straight-forward knit, I’ve added lots of photos and life is much easier for you, (and me if you need to ever get in touch re. a pattern query!) if you use the colour marker guide I’ve added within the pattern.

I hope you love your as much as I’ve loved creating this dinosaur - check back for more dinos to come!
