Cool Knitting

Cool Knitting (Australia)/Cute Knitted Toys (UK/International) is designed to be simple: it features 20 patterns for some of the internet’s favourite creatures – think: sloths, unicorns, sharks, cats – plus step-by-step photos and a beautifully illustrated guide to knitting with all the tips and tricks you will need. These are all based off two master shapes and and things are kept really minimal so that newer knitters can feel confident in making a toy!

Every toy has detailed instructions and step-by-step photography. Plus, each character also has a poem – so, even if you don’t knit it is a compelling read!

Here are some samples and below are links for the whole team who put it together and of course a list of places you can buy it : )
