Materials: 

3mm straight needles, yarn needle

DK coloured yarn for all as required (see list below)

Oddments of yarn for baubles

 

All can be made from cost effective 25 g DK toy yarn balls, and using oddments for smaller features, which is what I used for most of the pattern - however I used Stylecraft Special DK colour "Blush" for the piggy's head as it was a perfect piggy colour!

Perfect for a confident beginner, simple easy to follow pattern;  Stitch skills you will need are just knit and purl.  These patterns use a picot button hole, which will require you to yarn over (wrap the yarn around the needle) and knit the next two stitches together to create a small hole as part of the pattern, and an Irish Moss Stitch which is a simple repetition of knit and purl stitches - full instructions are in the pattern.

Please note; whilst I encourage knitting these for sale & for charity, they are my own design and pattern.
