Sebastian lives in a lovely flower path on a sunny hill. He’s the sweetest-smelling skunk you’ll ever meet. Knit his body with some quite intarsia, then work his tail and ears separately. Once he’s assembled, embroider his face. You can add beads for eyes, but do not add beads if giving Sebastian to a child.

Like all of the cuddly creatures in this book, Sebastian can be knit to different sizes by using different yarn weights and gauges. Need it oversized? Use bulky or jumbo yarn. Need it tiny? Try a finer weight. It’s as simple as that.
