Finished size: Cake; 5cm tall, 5.5cm diameter, Dog & cat, 8cm, Rabbit, 7cm, Mouse 5cm including the hats

All parts are knitted flat and sewn up at the end. No circular knitting is required.

The knitting skills required are the basic knit and purl.

While it involves several intricate parts and may require patience, the process of stitching the body parts together is relatively straightforward.

Double-pointed needles (DPNs) are used to make i-cords for the small arms and tails. If DPNs are unavailable, transfer the stitches to the working needle after each row is completed. The pattern includes i-cord instructions.

The rabbit holds a balloon. The balloon string is made of wire wrapped with yarn.
