They are based on a free pattern by Janet McMahon available on ravelry - Fair Isle Mice. I made a few mods - Knitted them in the round, knitted the ears differently, and tried out some different sweater patterns. Embroidered the eyes and noses with black perle cotton. They were a fun way to use up little scraps of yarn and stuffing
These little ones are so, so cute! My little one just saw them today too and asked me if they could be made… Yes! Could I? Well, I’d have to learn to knit. Her answer was yes please, and then to show her how to do it herself. So for 2020 I guess one of my biggest projects will be finally learning to knit. And then learn how to teach a 6yo
ohhh I love these. I don’t know why, but I love little yarny mice. I always mean to make little white ones at Christmas as a nod to the ones in the Christmas crackers in HP but these with the little sweaters… so round and sweet. LOVE!
