This knitted Battenberg slice is a fun, quick and easy knit and makes an instantly recognisable addition to any collection of play/display food or pin cushions.
The Lemon version has been worked using Robin DK and the Chocolate version has been worked using Patons Fab DK, though the pattern is also suitable for using up other DK oddments if tension is checked.
At a size of approx. 8cm square, the slice fits comfortably into little hands, though when used as a toy, all play should be supervised.
A collection of play food items makes a great stash buster and whether collected individually or sold collectively at fundraising fairs, these Battenberg slices are as tempting as the real thing.
