knit a square giveaway

Thursday, October 20, 2016

Okay. I have knit a monkey and a snake before, but I can honestly say that I wish this book was around when I did!

Wait, you can knit a square and turn it into a cute penguin?!
Or a turtle?!
Or a panda?
Or a pig?
Or a frog?!

There are 35 critters in all.  All constructed from a single square.  Seriously?!  And, I SO wish I would have taken a photo of the elephant.  Oh my cuteness!

If interested in Nicky Epsteins Knit a Square, Create a Cuddly Creature, please leave a comment here.   I'll announce the winner next weekend.

  1. This has blown my mind!! My kids love lovies, but I dread all the increases, decreases, etc. I don't get nearly enough knit because I can't take my knitting along. This book looks amazing!!

  2. Oh my goodness! I need that book! I am making a 2ft whale for my 4 year old son, and it is not going well, too complicated. Animals out of squares would be way easier!

    This is brilliant! I've sometimes wanted to knit a little animal, but never could be bothered when I saw how many little pieces there were. Problem solved!
