Caterpillars, butterfly, cocoon and food
Introducing our delightful CATERPILLAR, FOOD, COCOON, and BUTTERFLY knitting pattern set, perfect for fostering creativity and imaginative play! Designed to be knit on 2.25mm straight needles, this charming pattern features two sizes of caterpillars: the adorable BABY CATERPILLAR that doubles as a finger puppet, and the WELL-FED CATERPILLAR that is sure to captivate your child's attention.
The collection also includes a variety of colorful FOOD items, which feature intricate holes designed for the baby caterpillar to munch through! Your little one can enjoy knitting a wide assortment of delicious food items, including: APPLE, PLUM, PEAR, ORANGE, STRAWBERRY, CHOCOLATE CAKE, ICE CREAM, PICKLE, CHEESE, SALAMI, LOLLIPOP, CHERRY PIE, SAUSAGE, CUP CAKE, WATERMELON, and even a leafy green LEAF. These knitted food pieces serve as a fun and interactive way to engage children in identifying both food and colors.
In addition to the caterpillars and a bounty of food items, this pattern also features a cozy COCOON and a beautiful BUTTERFLY to complete the enchanting story of transformation. Help your child learn about nature and nutrition while stimulating their creativity! (Note: My local library has eagerly claimed sample pieces for their toddler group.)
Each piece averages around 8cm tall and uses oddments of DK yarn, making them quick to knit and budget-friendly. The completed toys can also be transformed into a whimsical mobile to hang in the nursery, adding a charming touch to any child's room.
Proudly crafted with child-friendliness in mind, this pattern avoids buttons or beads, ensuring safe play for little hands.
