Baba Yaga's House
Introducing my delightful knitted interpretation of the iconic Baba Yaga's house, a whimsical project perfect for knitters who love imaginative designs! This unique house is knit in separate pieces and meticulously sewn together to create a charming and sturdy structure. To maintain its shape and ensure durability, we recommend inserting a sturdy cardboard panel or plywood between the knitted layers. One of the special features of this design is the removable roof, allowing for easy access to the interior. Plus, the chicken legs, a hallmark of Baba Yaga's folklore, are included as an optional design detail that adds to the whimsical charm of your finished project.
**Finished Measurements:** This captivating knitted house measures 9.5 inches (24 cm) wide, 18.5 inches (47 cm) long (including the inviting porch), and stands 15 inches (38 cm) tall (without the legs). It's the perfect decorative piece for your home or a delightful gift for a fellow knitting enthusiast!
**Yardage Requirements:** To create your own enchanting Baba Yaga's house, you'll need approximately 500 yards (457 meters) of Main Color (MC), 780 yards (713 meters) of Color 1 (C1), and smaller amounts of other colors: 20 yards (18 meters) each of Colors 2 (C2) and 5 (C5), 40 yards (36.5 meters) of Color 3 (C3), and 300 yards (274 meters) of Color 4 (C4). The varied color palette allows for creative freedom, so feel free to use your favorite yarn scraps!
The pictured sample was crafted using a delightful assortment of scrap yarn, showcasing the lovely textures and hues that can be achieved with different materials. The charming chicken legs were crafted to order from a beautiful piece of maple wood, adding an extra touch of authenticity to this enchanting project.
