Meet Pearl the Canadian Goose! She’s the official 2018 mascot for Project Peace, and is small and simple to knit. If you’d like to take part in this year’s Project Peace, visit the Project Peace website and Ravelry for daily suggestions for ways to bring a little peace into your daily life and join their peaceful knitting community!

“Project Peace was to remind people that peace is a choice. It’s not something that will someday be given to us… for free, without work. Peace is built from the bottom-up and that’s us.”

Pearl is quick and simple to knit, and will be equally at home nestling in your hand, or, with a hanging ribbon attached, she would make a wonderful Christmas ornament.

I’ve suggested using Stylecraft Special DK, but you can use any oddments of DK yarns that you have sitting in your stash.
