Get ready to have a blast with car jams! These super-squishy Toy Vehicles are not only a delight to knit but are also functional as adorable throw cushions. Designed by the talented Amanda Berry (@fluffandfuzz), these charming vehicles are knitted using soft acrylic DK yarn on single pointed needles, rather than in the round. With this comprehensive knitting pattern, you'll be able to create a vibrant yellow cab, a speedy cop car, and a helpful ambulance. But why stop there? You can use this versatile basic vehicle template to craft an entire fleet of toy vehicles in a rainbow of colours to spark your child's imagination. Each vehicle features lovely, simple details that make them even more special. The window struts are added with Swiss darning (also known as duplicate stitch), providing a polished finish. The ambulance employs intarsia colour-work, while the taxi car showcases stranded colour-work. This knitting pattern is ideal for confident beginners and experienced knitters alike, as it incorporates a variety of techniques. You’ll learn essential skills such as casting on and off, knitting and purling, increasing and decreasing stitches, as well as seaming to complete your delightful creations. Dive into the world of knitting with these adorable toy vehicles, and bring joy and creativity right into your home. Whether you're knitting for playtime or decor, this pattern is a perfect addition to your knitting repertoire!
