Toy Wombat

Introducing our adorable Australian Wombat knitting pattern, perfect for knitting enthusiasts eager to create a huggable friend! With the option to knit this cute toy in two sizes, you can choose different yarn thicknesses and needle sizes to suit your preferences. This pattern features detailed instructions that guide you through assembling the pieces flat on two needles, which includes clever gussets to shape your cuddly wombat just right.

Best suited for intermediate knitters with some prior toy-making experience, this charming wombat will not only make a delightful addition to your collection but also a wonderful gift! Inspired by Jackie French’s beloved children's books, such as “Diary of a Wombat” and “Grandma Wombat,” this pattern brings the whimsy and humor of Australian wildlife into your crafting. These stories are a treasure trove of enjoyment, making your knitting experience even more delightful.

Although the Australian bushfire fundraising campaign aimed at aiding affected wildlife has now concluded, we are proud to share that the six patterns involved collectively raised an impressive AU$1,610 — a fantastic outcome that reflects the power of community and compassion in craft!

We sincerely thank everyone who contributed by purchasing a pattern. Your support not only fosters creativity but also aids wildlife in need. Get your knitting needles ready and embark on a fun project that celebrates the unique charm of the wombat. Happy knitting!
