10 adorable animals to knit tonight

10 adorable animals to knit tonight

Nothing is cuter than a knitted animal, right? The tiny legs, the cheeky smiles, the oh-so cuddly softness, we just can’t get enough of them. From the familiar kitty cats to the unusual armadillos, we’ve rounded up our top ten free animal patterns to make for your little one (or for yourself!). Best of all, many of the patterns are great stash-busters. Teddy bears move over!
