What you need to know

Practise your colour changing technique with our knitted guinea pigs

Meet Daisy, Digby and Dwayne, the chatty trio who love nothing more than munching on leftover trimmings and keeping active with fellow pals. Each guinea pig is worked in the same way, however Sachiyo Ishii has used the intarsia method to achieve various colour patterns, so make sure you keep an eye out for these.

Don't forget to save your PDFs to your computer or tablet device as soon as it has been downloaded.
