Loopy lion

Make It

This project was made from an independent Craftsy designer's pattern:
Loopy Lion »

Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Toy

For: Other

Style: Cute


Materials

Knitpicks swish DK yarn

What was your inspiration?

My son loves animals and I wanted to make him a lion.

What are you most proud of?

I developed my own way to do intarsia in the round (unvented) and I learned how to do the loop stitch.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Don't be frightened by new techniques, the pattern has instructions for intarsia in the round or knitting flat, I think the intarsia gives the most professional finish.

He's so cute, and I'm totally intrigued by your "intarsia in the round" comment...
