Sweet Airedale Terrier

Knitting Pattern PDF

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

The body is made with boucle yarn, using garter stitches throughout. Please see the yarn information below. I knitted the black section with thinner yarn held together, but the same boucle yarn in black is also a suitable alternative. If you encounter difficulties while knitting chunky yarn with 3.5mm needles, slightly increasing the needle size might help.

The parts knitted with garter stitch have no right side or wrong side, except the body which is worked with two colours.

Finished size: 15cm
