Rudy - Choc Orange Cosy/Softie

£2.99

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A PDF Knitting Pattern

Rudy is a very versatile little reindeer and is as cute as a button. He may be small, but he’s packed full of character and hides a chocolate orange inside his belly beautifully. Or if you prefer you can buy a clear 7cm fillable bauble and stuff it full of sweets/candys, a lottery ticket or any small gifts you can think of to make him truly unique. He can be easily turned into a softie by using the base pattern included in the pattern. He’s the perfect size for little hands to cuddle. He would be ideal to sit on a shelf as a Christmas decoration, he’s just so versatile!

He is knitted flat using 3mm straight needles and DK yarn. I used a pair of 3mm DPNs for his antlers.

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