July Challenge

Well.

It's the beginning of another month, and we all know what that means...

IT'S CHALLENGE TIME.

Fuzzy the Small Bearskin Rug

What do you think of this fabulous bear skin blankie???

Fuzzy the Small Bearskin Rug

It's a knitting challenge and the pattern will be FREE to those participating.

You need to make the rug and post photos before the end of the month. As always I will choose my favourite one, and then that person tells me what to design for the next knitting challenge.

Fuzzy measures 51 cm (20 in) in length and 36 cm (14 ¼ in) in width.

He is made using 150g of 10 ply/worsted weight yarn and a pair of 4.5 mm (US 7) needles.

Interested?

Send me a message with your email address…

And I look forward to seeing what you create!

Definitely. The bear is worked in garter stitch which makes it nice and easy. You need to be able to cast on, KNIT (no purling) and do basic increases and decreases (kfb and k2tog) and cast off (bind off)...

I'm sending you an email :)
