Penny Pig

Penny Pig is a delightful knitting project that captures the joy of spring sunshine. This adorable pig is meticulously knitted in stockinette, utilizing simple increases and decreases for shaping, making it an enjoyable challenge for knitters. Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, Penny Pig is crafted using high-quality DK yarns and single pointed needles (note that this pattern is not worked in the round). The charming pig’s tail features an i-cord tube, skillfully worked on two double-pointed needles (DPNs), adding a unique touch to this lovely creation.

This pattern is perfect for confident beginners and more advanced knitters alike. In addition to the main techniques, you will learn essential skills such as casting on and off, performing knits and purls, executing a kfb (knit front and back) increase, and techniques like ssk (slip-slip-knit) and k2tog (knit two together) decreases. Seam finishing completes the look of your adorable knitted pig.

Whether you're looking to create a charming gift or expand your knitting repertoire, Penny Pig is an engaging project that will brighten your crafting sessions. Download the free pattern today to get started on this delightful knitted pig that celebrates both creativity and the warmth of spring!
