Jerome the Donkey would make a wonderful companion for a little one, or a donkey lover of any age. Knit with 2 strands of yarn held together, he is made in a single piece without seaming, then felted in a washing machine or dryer. His favorite accessories, a scarf and leg warmers can be knit from any yarn in your stash. The pattern provides comprehensive instructions for knitting, felting, and stuffing Jerome, as well instructions for his accessories.

Felted animals are highly durable and last generations!
