Norman the Peacock

$4.85

Bring regal splendour into your home with your very own handcrafted peacock, Norman! This stunning knitting pattern is perfect for adventurous knitters looking to create a beautiful decor piece. Standing approximately 21cm (8¼in) tall when seated, Norman's magnificent tail feathers spread out to about 35cm (13¾in) at their widest point, making him a truly eye-catching project. His head is crafted using the intricate intarsia method, while the tail feathers are adorned with shimmering gold metallic thread, adding a touch of elegance and luxury to your work!

Every piece of this charming pattern is knitted flat on straight needles, though many sections can also be easily adapted to be knitted in the round. Once completed, the pieces are expertly seamed and attached using the mattress stitch technique, giving your peacock a neat finish. The tail motifs are highlighted with a line of backstitch, but why stop there? Feel free to unleash your creativity! You can enhance Norman's allure with intricate embroidery, sparkling beads, or even dazzling sequins to craft a timeless heirloom that will be cherished for years to come.

We are pleased to inform you that this knitting pattern has been thoroughly reviewed by a professional technical editor to ensure that every step is super easy to follow, making it suitable for knitters of all skill levels! Norman was knitted using Woolcraft New Fashion DK yarn in stunning shades like Royal, Emerald, Kingfisher, Imperial, Mustard, and White. However, if you're looking for alternatives, the suggested Hayfield Bonus DK yarns offer virtually identical colors and textures.

Whether you're adding a touch of nature-inspired decor to your living space or crafting a unique gift for someone special, this peacock knitting pattern promises to fulfill your creative desires. Join the knitters' community today and start working on your very own regal peacock, Norman!
