Itchy Mouse Chocolate Orange Cosy

£2.99

I’ve always had a soft spot for mice and when this little guy popped into my head I just knew he would make a cute Chocolate Orange Cosy.

He’s all dressed snug and warm in his hat and scarf ready for winter hiding that chocolate orange in his belly.

He’d make a perfect ‘Thank you’ Teacher gift and he’s also a great stocking filler. You could place a bath bomb in his belly instead, or even a clear bauble filled with sweets, a lottery ticket or any number of small gifts etc. Whatever you put inside his belly everyone will agree he’s so, so cute.

He’s knitted in Teddy Aran on 3mm straight needles and is so soft and snuggly.

I hope you’ll enjoy knitting him as much as I have.
