Coin Pocket - Monster Fish
Looking for a quick and delightful gift idea that will bring smiles to a child's face? Consider this fun and quirky Monster Fish knitting pattern! It’s a fast and easy project that kids will love, and since it’s a Monster Fish, it’s not overly critical about how it turns out—every creation is unique and special. :)
Not only does this project work up quickly, but it also serves as a wonderful opportunity to introduce your child to important financial concepts. You can teach them about the value of money, the basics of managing a small allowance, and the ideas of saving, spending, and sharing through donation. All of this, wrapped up in a fun, hands-on activity!
Materials Needed: For this adorable Monster Fish, you’ll need approximately 75 yards of a feltable wool yarn for the main body and about 25 yards for the fins. You will also require a large toothed zipper (7" or longer) and a key chain clasp (optional) to finish off the project nicely.
Skills Required: This pattern is designed for those who are familiar with working in the round on double-pointed needles (dpns), knitting on cast-on, creating I-cord, felting, and sewing in a zipper. If you’re looking to build your skills, this could be just the right challenge for you!
The pattern comes complete with a detailed photo tutorial on how to sew in the zipper seamlessly, as well as a brief guide on hand felting techniques. This ensures that even novice knitters can achieve fantastic results!
