Porky & Bess

Introducing our delightful knitting pattern for Porky the Pig and Bess the Blackface Lamb! These two lovable, soft, and cuddly characters have just returned from the County Show and are proudly flaunting their winning rosettes. Perfect for knitters of all skill levels, this pattern will guide you in creating charming companions that are sure to bring joy to everyone.

Porky and Bess each stand approximately 12 inches (30 cm) tall and measure 10 inches (25 cm) across, making them the ideal size for snuggling or as a whimsical decoration. They are crafted using the short row method on straight needles, featuring simple Knit and Purl stitches that make this a straightforward project for both beginners and experienced knitters alike.

For this adorable design, I used Stylecraft Special DK acrylic yarn, known for its softness, durability, and vibrant colors. However, most DK yarns would work wonderfully to achieve similar results, allowing you to personalize your creations with your favorite colors and textures.

This comprehensive pattern is available in easy-to-follow PDF format, spanning 12 pages filled with detailed row-by-row instructions and explanatory photos. Each step is clearly laid out, ensuring that you can easily replicate Porky and Bess at home.
