The third AA Milne character with Ernest Shepard’s illustrations in kind… and I believe one of the the most loved?

In Wikipedia he’s described as “…generally characterized as a pessimistic, gloomy, depressed, anhedonic, old grey stuffed donkey… “
But - I like to think of him as rather loveable and full of character with many good points!

My Eeyore is super-soft knitted in Cardiff Cashmere (there is a kit if you’d like to purchase this pattern as a bundle - it’s here - KnittedHome) - but of course, as always you can knit this with your own choice of yarn.

He’s knitted flat with minimal seams and there are plenty of helpful step photos to ease you through.

If you want a posable Eeyore feel free to add an armature or even weighted beans into the body to give yours extra weight and support - needed if you want to have a go at animation!

Hope you enjoy the pattern!

P.S - I’ve probably taken far too many photos!!
