Upsy Daisy is a favourite character from the British children’s television program In The Night Garden…

Large enough to cuddle, this Upsy Daisy toy will let your child take the magic to bed after the episode ends.

You can also knit her best friend Igglepiggle with a separate Snoo’s Knits pattern.

You will need:

  • Wool in brown, light orange, dark orange, yellow, red, pink and lavender, no more than 25g each, plus a tiny amount of black for embroidery. I used various brands of double knit. Tension square: 10cm x 10cm is 22 sts across and 30 rows.
  • Knitting needles – I used 3.0mm
  • Tapestry needle
  • Toy safety-eyes (mine were 7mm diameter)
  • Stuffing
  • Tiny amount of white felt
  • Stitch-holder
