Nutty Squirrels - Ferrero Rocher Covers

Delight in the charm of these adorable squirrel creations that are perfect for hiding special treats! These nutty little pairs snugly embrace a secret Ferrero Rocher chocolate or a delectable Lindt Lindor chocolate. Whether you’re celebrating the festive spirit of Christmas or the joyous arrival of Easter, these knitted squirrels make a whimsical decoration that brings sweetness to any occasion.

Crafted from simple-to-follow patterns, both red and grey squirrels share an easy knitting design that uses straight needles along with leftover oddments of DK or Tinsel Yarn. You can also get creative by changing colors to suit your decor or personal style. These delightful squirrels are not only fun to knit but also add a playful touch to your holiday celebrations—balance them on the branches of your Christmas tree or use them as charming table decorations for each place setting!

Designed using *Stocking Stitch* and *Garter Stitch*, each squirrel is worked flat for ease, making this pattern suitable for both beginner and experienced knitters alike. You'll need 4mm single-pointed needles to bring your furry friends to life. When completed, each adorable squirrel measures approximately 10cm (including ears), while the space allocated for hiding chocolate treats measures 5.5cm.

Make this delightful knitting project your next endeavor, and watch as your friends and family smile at these irresistible squirrel companions that carry sweet surprises!
