The jungle can be a messy place, but your kids will beg for the king of beasts to help clean them up. Thankfully, with easy knit and purl stitches and instructions offered in written and charted form, you’ll whip this quick knit up in no time at all.

This pattern includes both versions - the lion with a full mane as well as the lion with an outlined mane. Both are quick, easy knits - take your pick as to which you prefer!

Errata (has been corrected for all downloads after 1/13/11):
In the outline version, line 19 should read - (k1, p1) twice, k3, p4, k5, p1, k10, p4, k9, (k1, p1) twice
