Milo & Friends
KNITTING PATTERN DESIGN BY AMANDA BERRY
Milo the handsome lion is sporting a rather fetching mane which he’s showing off to his chums, Oscar the tiger and Jacob the giraffe.
Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, these toys are knitted in acrylic yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round), and the tails and horns are i-cord knitted on two DPNs. The lion’s mane is made by attaching strands of yarn onto the head after knitting as you would to attach doll hair.
Find the knitting pattern at LoveCrafts.
