Another toy creation from Clever Hands - a VERY cute and friendly pumpkin toy for the little one at Halloween and for that matter, all year around. Pumpkin cutie also comes with it’s very own jacket – the pattern for this is included.

Suitable for any knitter who is happy to follow assembly instructions using mostly back stitch. The pumpkin head itself is knitted in one piece, so nice and easy. The toy’s body is made with 2 matching pieces that include the arms. The two simple legs are knitted separately and later attached to the body. A great way to practice your knitting and sewing skills with seams for the head, body and jacket required; attaching the stem and leaves, and embroidering a simple face.

The jacket uses reverse stocking stitch for the edgings and a very simple 2 colour yarn pattern for the jacket itself. It is composed of 3 pieces – a back, a left and a right front.

2 x 100g Main colour (orange)
