Straight Knitting Needles:

Size 4 (3.5mm) (For Animals)

Size 6 (4mm) (For Blankets)

7.5mm toy safety eyes

Small Amount Black Yarn/Embroidery Floss

Large-Eyed Blunt Needle

Long Straight Pins

Removable Stitch Markers

Polyester Fiberfill Stuffing

Skill Level: Intermediate

Size: Blanket approx. 12” square. The size of your

blanket will be determined by the type of

yarn, size needles, and your personal

tension.

Gauge: Gauge is not critical for this project. Work

tightly enough to ensure that the stuffing will

not show through the stitches.

Stitches Used: K (knit), P (purl), Inc (increase),

Dec (decrease), Cast-on, Bind-off









Stitch Explanation:

Inc = (Knit into the front and back of the

stitch…1 stitch increased)

Dec = (Knit 2 stitches together knit-wise…

1 stitch decreased)

Sl1pw = (Slip 1 stitch, purlwise)

St st = (Stockinette stitch…alternating knit

and purl rows)

Notes:

The blankets are interchangeable. Choose

whichever stitch pattern you prefer. The collar

design is for all animals. I have stitched it in

colors that match the blanket, but you may

wish to make it in a contrasting color. The

collar takes approx. 11 yds. of yarn, and has

been included in the amount needed for the

blanket.

When fastening off, always leave a 24” long

tail for stitching seams together or attaching

animal parts later.

Although seams are usually turned inside-out

to stitch and then turned right-side-out after

the seam is stitched, for the construction of

these animals and easier access, it is

recommended that you neatly stitch the

seams together when right-side-out, stuffing

as you go along, unless otherwise instructed.

Stitch seams together using any method you

prefer and are most comfortable with.

Blocking the blankets before attaching

animals is suggested. It will produce a more

uniform product. I simply wet the blanket

under the faucet, squeeze out excess water,

wrap it in a towel and twist to remove even

more water. Then place the blanket on a flat

surface, adjust with hands to form a 12”

square and allow to dry.

BLANKET A:

Double Moss Stitch

Use Size 6 (4mm) needles

Cast on 54 sts.

Row 1: K

Row 2 (right side of work):

Sl1pw, k to end

Row 3: Repeat Row 2

last 3 sts remain, k3 (creates side border)

Row 5: Repeat Row 4

Row 6: Sl1pw, k2, (k2, p2) till last 3 sts remain, k3

Row 7: Repeat Row 6

Rows 8-83: Repeat Rows 4 through 7

Row 84: Repeat Row 4

Rows 85-87: Sl1pw, k to end

Bind off LOOSELY, binding off last two stitches

together. (TIP: Using a larger size needle to bind off

makes it easy to achieve a loose bind-off.) Cut yarn

leaving long tail, pull through last loop.

Cast on 54 sts.

Row 1: K

Row 2 (right side of work):

Sl1pw, k to end

(K1, inc1) x 4, (inc1, k1) x4 = 24 sts

Rows 3 & 4: K

Row 5: (K2, inc1) x 4, (inc1, k2) x4 = 32 sts

Rows 6 & 7: K

Row 8: (K3, inc1) x 4, (inc1, k3) x4 = 40 sts

LAMB Head:

Use Size 4 (3.5mm) needles

(You will be working from the

back of the head to the front.)

With main color yarn:

Leaving long tail, cast on 6 sts.

Row 1: Inc6 = 12 sts

Row 2: P


Row 4: P

Row 5: (K3, inc1) x 3, (inc1, k3) x 3 = 30 sts

Rows 6-10: Work in St st, beg with purl.

Row 11: K9, dec6, k9 = 24 sts

Row 12: P

Change to contrast color yarn:

Rows 13 & 14: Work in St st, beg with knit.

Row 22: P

Row 23: Dec12 = 12 sts

Row 24: P


Do not bind off. Cut yarn leaving long tail and thread

yarn tail onto large-eyed blunt needle. Thread

needle through remaining 6 sts and pull up to

gather. Begin stitching seam to end of contrast

color…Now, working at the cast-on edge, thread


needle through 6 cast-on sts and pull up to gather.

Begin stitching seam towards contrast color,

stopping to stuff head firmly. Do NOT close seam

yet. With seam on the underside, decide on

placement of toy safety eyes…just below the main

color yarn, 1/2” apart. You may have to remove

some of the head stuffing to place them in, and then

re-stuff the head very firmly, pushing out cheeks and

forehead, after eyes have been placed in. If you

would like the eyes to appear “indented”, and to

make them more secure, place a little stuffing

around the stem of the eye before pushing on the

washer. When head is stuffed, it should be approx.

6 ½” around the widest part of the forehead, 6 ½”

around the cheek area.

To make the mouth appear indented, insert needle

with contrast color yarn under head, and exit the

mouth at the point of gathered stitches. Re-enter a

stitch or two away and exit at the original point of

entrance, under the head. Pull to make mouth indent

and secure.

The nose will be placed just above the decreases.

Using 2 strands of contrast color yarn, make a

French knot, wrapping 2 times around the needle

before reinserting needle. 3









LAMB Ears: (Make 2)


(You will be working from the outer to inner ear.)


Leaving long tail, cast on 12 sts. Row 1: K5, inc2, k5 = 14 sts Row 2: P Row 3: K5, inc4, k5 = 18 sts Rows 4-8: Work in St st, beg with purl Change to contrast color yarn: Rows 9 & 10: Work in St st, beg with knit Row 11: K5, dec4, k5 = 14 sts Row 12: P Row 13: K5, dec2, k5 = 12 sts Row 14: P

Bind off LOOSELY, binding off last two stitches together. Cut yarn leaving long tail, pull through last loop, and thread yarn tail onto large-eyed blunt needle.

Fold ear, right sides together, Turn right-side-out. Holding & stitch cast-on and bound-off edges. both sides of ear together, weave yarn through straight edge stitches of outer and inner ear.

Pull up to gather. Stitch ears to side of head, along edge of main color. When attached, ears should be 2 ¼” apart.

Add curls above eyes, between the ears: Thread

main color yarn on blunt needle. Thread needle

under one stitch. Pull through leaving a loop. Thread

needle under the same stitch and the next stitch at

the same time, this time pulling tightly to lock in the

loop over the first stitch. Repeat process. Place

head aside for later.
