Van and Trailer

Introducing this delightful knitted toy van and trailer, perfect for little ones who adore anything with wheels! This charming set is not only fun to play with, but also encourages imaginative adventures right from the comfort of your home. Whether your child prefers to drive the van alone or connect the trailer for an extended journey, hours of play await!

The construction of the van and trailer starts with knitting flat from the bottom. Stitches are initially cast on, and the rest of the project is seamlessly worked in the round before finishing it off with precise grafting techniques. Creative short rows shape the hood and tops, while the adorable wheels are knitted in the round, carefully stuffed before final assembly. Details such as windows, bumpers, and grills are crafted flat and sewn onto the finished toy, giving it a polished look. To add the finishing touches, bright and cheerful lights are embroidered using the duplicate stitch technique.

With impressive finished sizes of 7" width × 9" length × 4.5" height for the van and 7" width × 10" length × 4.5" height for the trailer, this knitted toy is the perfect size for little hands to explore and enjoy.

Please note: One skein of C4 (Swan) yarn is just enough to complete the trailer; however, we recommend purchasing an extra skein to ensure you have enough for your project. Small amounts of other colors—C5 (Fiesta Red), C6 (Crème Brulee), and C7 (Blue)—are also utilized, and any leftover yarn should suffice for adding charming details.

This unique knitting pattern is ideal for both beginner and experienced knitters, making it a delightful project to share with family and friends. With its captivating design and hands-on play value, this knitted toy van and trailer is sure to become a cherished item in your child's toy collection!
