NEW IN PAPERBACK The growing popularity of meerkats over the last few years has elevated them to something approaching cult status, and now these playful creatures have been immortalised in yarn by Sue Stratford, who has created 20 fun meerkat characters to knit. All of the meerkats in this book are based on the same easy-to-follow pattern, which is then transformed into a beach babe, rock star, bride, gardener, golfer, skier - to name just a few- by simply using different coloured yarns and dressing them in different knitted outfits.
This book is filled with cute, easy knits with a vintage feel. There are knitting patterns for seven different adorable animal toys - a rabbit, a kitten, a mouse, a puppy, a panda, a teddy and a monkey, each approx. 8 inches (20cm) high, and all easy and quick to knit. Each animal is accompanied by a mini knitted version of itself that can be stored in the little shoulder bag or backpack that each toy carries. There are patterns for over 50 garments and accessories in which to dress the toys - most of them knitted and some sewn garments. All the clothes are one size and designed to fit every animal, so the reader can mix and match items to create their chosen toy's own unique wardrobe. The outfits are split into themes such as Out to Play, Picnic Time and Time for School, and include pyjamas, outdoor clothes, summer dresses, school uniform and so on, with added accessories.Readers are encouraged to use up scraps of yarn and fabric they already have for the clothes, re-using materials from a favourite item that's long since outgrown to make a keepsake toy that has special significance.
Presents projects with instructions and patterns for forty Christmas gifts or decorations, including Christmas stockings, reindeer, snowmen, an angel, and a star.
