Body is made in one piece, including feet, folded then sewn at legs. Raglan sleeves, hood, tail and ears to make a complete Animal Outfit. The hands are covered but there is an opening to access the hands. The hand and foot pads are embroidered on when finishing. Basic knitting skills are required as step by step instructions are given for each aspect of the pattern. Yarn amounts are calculated by yardage as the choice of yarn is up to you. The pattern is made for both medium worsted #4 and bulky #5 yarns as long as you reach gauge. Needle size would vary around 6mm-6.5mm. I recommend acrylic yarns for easy washing and care.
