Space Rocket and Astronaut

Introducing our delightful space rocket cushion, a whimsical addition to your knitting collection! This charming cushion features a handy pocket on the back, perfect for carrying your very own astronaut into limitless space adventures. Designed by the talented Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, this unique toy is knitted from soft, high-quality acrylic DK yarns using single pointed needles, as this project is knit flat rather than in the round.
