Notes
Who could resist knitting a Teddy Bears’ picnic or a pair of Humpty Dumpty senior citizens? Here is a splendid variety of toys to make from oddments of double knitting yarn. Children will love the cute and cuddly bunny rabbit family and the fun-filled prehistoric fantasy of dinosaurs and cave people. For sports fans there is a jolly octopus mascot which can also be made as a teaching toy for a child. Then for the Christmas season there is a colourful collection of tree trims and a pair of chubby little stocking-filler snowball toys.
Happy knitting!
Jean
