Elf and Teddy

Welcome to your next knitting adventure! This charming project features all parts knitted flat, meaning no circular knitting is required—perfect for knitters who prefer traditional techniques. Once you've completed each piece, simply sew them together at the end for a polished finish.

The sample design is crafted using 4-ply (fingering) weight yarn, providing a delicate and lightweight fabric that’s ideal for a range of projects. However, if you prefer a bit more heft, you can opt for DK (8-ply) weight yarn with slightly larger needles for a more substantial feel.

This pattern calls for only small amounts of yarn, making it an excellent choice for utilizing your stash! Upcycling has never been easier or more satisfying. When it comes to color choices, keep in mind that green will require the most quantity. If you are working with 4-ply yarn, you'll need about 15g at the most, while using DK weight may require approximately 20-25g to achieve the desired results.

Embark on this delightful knitting journey and create something beautiful while also practicing sustainability by using yarn from your collection. Happy knitting!
