Inspired by NMStacey and her cute yoga adaptation of this pattern.

Used size 1 needles for mouse and body. I did a purl row at the belt level (knitting double with a scrap of Madeline tosh) and a purl row at the neck before starting the head. The “pants” color I started one row after the foot was complete.

size 3 needles for yoga mat - cast on 22 stitches (german twist method) and knit until it was just a bit longer than the mouse was tall. Bound off by working first 2 stitches as knit, then sliding them back to the left needle, knit together through back loop, repeat.

Braided the headband and pulled the ends of the braid in through the back of the head and down to hide the knots. Did 5 quick stitches with thread around where the braids overlapped to bind them together.

6mm black eyes

For the strap, I just crocheted chain stitches (black Vanna’s choice) and pulled up a loop at each end to pull the strap through to make 2 larger loops.
