From the tip of his rounded nose to the pointed ends of his tail, this shark is all bark and no bite, making him an ideal companion for kids and adults alike.

This easy pattern is an excellent starter project for anyone eager to dive into the world of knitting stuffed animals. Our knitted Shark is designed for advanced beginner knitters and assumes a basic understanding of essential knitting stitches and standard knitting terminology. Crafted by knitting flat and assembled using a mattress stitch, you’ll enjoy the process of bringing this charming creature to life!

For this delightful project, you will need approximately 60 meters of medium weight dark grey (DG) yarn and 25 meters of medium weight light grey (LG) yarn. A set of 4 mm (US size 6) needles will work perfectly. Additionally, you’ll need a small amount of yarn for embroidering the shark’s cheerful face, some stuffing—such as ecofil or wool—and a tapestry needle for sewing your little friend together.

You can stick with our recommended yarn or choose any yarn that inspires you. This knitting pattern is adaptable, allowing you to use various thicknesses of yarn while still achieving beautiful results.
