What you need to know

Recreate the classic poem with Susie Johns' delightful playset!

How delightful are this little knitted pair? Our owl and pussycat look like they have stepped straight out of Edward Lear’s poem and contain some fabulous details, from the guitar strings to the calyx on the pod-shaped pea green boat. The two characters are really easy to knit with simple stripes and basic shaping. Why not present this set in a gift box with a printed copy of the poem?
