NORWOOD MONKEY TOY KNITTING PATTERNS
Norwood is a very cheeky monkey, and he loves eating bananas. This listing is for patterns for you to knit your own Norwood Monkey and bananas. There are two banana patterns included – a freshly picked banana, and one banana that Norwood has opened ready to eat. The banana skin and fruit are knitted separately, so don’t let your cheeky monkey leave banana skins on the floor for people to slip on!
PLEASE NOTE: This listing is for the knitting patterns only; this is not a listing for a finished toy.
FINISHED SIZE: The monkey is approximately 26cm tall. The bananas are approximately 12cm long. You can make your monkey bigger by following this pattern with a slightly larger needle size.
ABOUT THE PATTERN: The pattern includes row numbers for each step so you don’t lose your place, instructions for making the monkey and bananas, photos, a list of abbreviations and explanation of some techniques, a materials list and recommended yarns. The pattern is 7 pages and written in English. The pattern incorporates intarsia colour-work to make the monkey head, and short rows (instructions on short rows are also included).
DELIVERY: The knitting patterns will be sent to you by email as a pdf file and I endeavour to send your pattern to you within 24 hours of cleared payment.
TO KNIT YOUR TOYS YOU WILL NEED THIS PATTERN AND: All pieces are knitted flat on straight 3mm (US 3) knitting needles, apart from the banana stalks which are i-cord knitted on two DPNs. The monkey and bananas are knitted in double knitting (light worsted weight) yarns.
