Mummy and Baby Guinea Pigs

Discover the joy of creating your own adorable Mummy and Baby guinea pigs with this easy-to-follow knitting pattern! These charming companions are not only simple to make but also effortless to care for, making them perfect pets for your household or delightful playmates for little ones. In fact, the more guinea pigs you knit, the happier they become, bringing joy and cuddles to your home. This versatile Double Knit pattern works well with any Double knit yarn, allowing you to express your creativity. We highly recommend using Rowan Lima, a luxurious Alpaca/Merino mix DK yarn, particularly the stunning Machu Picchu for the vibrant red guinea pig and Lima for the lovely brown one. If you're looking for a softer touch, opt for 100% Baby Alpaca DK yarn, and we suggest a cream and black color palette, which pairs beautifully together—Rowan Baby Alpaca is an excellent choice for this. To add a little flair, use PINK Cashmere/Merino/Silk baby DK yarn mix from Sublime for the ears, feet, and nose of your guinea pigs. You will also need toy stuffing for a cuddly feel, 9mm safety black eyes for those adorable expressions, and a wool sewing needle to assemble your creations. The pattern utilizes single-point 3 ¾ mm needles for ease of knitting. **Size Details:** - **Baby Guinea Pig**: Height 5cm, Length 9cm - **Mummy Guinea Pig**: Height 11cm, Length 24cm Best of all, there is no shipping charge for this delightful item—it’s available as an instant PDF pattern download, so you can start knitting your charming guinea pigs right away.
