Scaredy Cat

 

 

 

This little cat measures about 7 inches long and 9 inches tall. He is first knit in the round on size US 8 double-pointed needles, then felted in your washing machine. His tail is knit with one strand of eyelash yarn and is not felted. His legs are string-jointed with waxed thread. The 8-page pattern includes directions for knitting, felting and assembling. $5

You'll need two sets of double-pointed needles to complete this project ... choose either two sets of size US 8 double-pointed needles for a gingerbread man approximately 5 inches tall by 4 inches wide ... or two sets of size US 10 1/2 double-pointed needles for a slightly larger (about 6 inches tall by 5 inches wide) gingerbread man.

Knitted/Felted Gingerbread Man

No baking required! Knit completely in the round, this little gingerbread man is knit from only one skein of 100% wool yarn on size US 8 double-pointed needles, then felted in your washing machine. For a larger version, follow the pattern using size US 10 1/2 double-pointed needles, instead. The 8-page pattern includes all directions for knitting, felting and icing (with embroidery stitches, of course)! Add the optional finger pockets to the back of his legs and make him run as fast as you can!  $5
