What you need to know

Meet Val Pierce's cute and cuddy crustacean!

This cheeky chap has become a firm favourite in the LKT office - he's just bursting with personality! He's mostly worked in garter stitch, while the cable detail around the shell will give novice knitters the chance to boost their skill set. Rocky's eyes are made using crochet, so it's a great opportunity to brush up on your skills.

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