12 FUZZY TOTS all made from one basic pattern. Each one measures 7cm (3in) from top to toe. Stand them on a flat surface or pop them on the Christmas tree.

QUICK and EASY to knit, Fuzzy Tots make excellent little fund raisers at fairs and bazaars.

This five page pattern has numbered rows which make it very easy to follow. There are plenty of handy knitting tips and illustrations to guide you throughout the pattern. Only basic knitting skills are required. Pattern is written in English.
