Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
The (Not So) Itty-Bitty Giraffe »

Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Toy

For: Children

Style: Cute


What was your inspiration?

Wanted to learn circular knitting and have fun at the same time. This class was the perfect combination for me. And now i have an adorable hand made baby shower gift ready to go!

What are you most proud of?

That i finished it! You would not believe how many unfinished projects i have ....

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

If knitting in the round is hard for you on the small pieces (like the antlers) just knit them flat in stockinette and stitch them closed. That is what i did after several starts and stops and you can't tell any difference. :)
