What you need to know

Use DK yarn to knit Amanda Berry's adorable Christmas dog

With his snowflake jumper and accompanying scarf, this little fellow is all wrapped up for winter. Soft, cuddly and full of character, he’s quickly become a firm favourite here at Let’s Knit, and we’re sure he’ll be just as adored in your home too. He’s a great gift for smaller children as there are no small parts, and his removable clothes mean he can be dressed up in different outfits throughout the year. This is one dog that will certainly be your new best friend!
