Felted Stashbuster Caterpillar
This is a fun, quick project, perfect for beginners, and makes a great gift! Perfect for an Easter gift, or just for decorative purposes, this pattern is also ideal for those new to felting!
I originally created this pattern to see which of my yarns (not labeled), was feltable! My kids love to play with these toys- they just seem to capture the imagination!
Also a great stashbuster! Uses only about 40 yards total (13 of each color-although, it would take less, if you use more colors).
Skills needed:
Knitting, sewing
Supplies needed:
About 40 Yard Bulky Weight, Feltable Yarn (Wool, Alpaca, similar)
Size US 11 Needles (straight)
Tapestry Needle
Felted measurement: about 9” long, 3 1/2” circumference
The photos shown, in the first pictures are an example of the variety of colors you can use; the actual pattern gives information for yarns used in the last pictures (the blue and green), in case you want to use this specific yarn.
