Small Mouse

**Purchase any 2 or more of my patterns at the same time and receive an automatic 20% discount.** This pattern is written in English and comes with full instructions for knitting and finishing a little mouse with removable clothes which is a small-scale version of my larger mice. These little mice are designed to be knitted with exactly the same yarn weights and needle sizes as their larger cousins. Using both the larger and smaller sized patterns you can knit a whole family. Finished size: approx 18cm (7 inches) from the tip of the toes to the top of the head (not including the ears in the measurement) Included are instructions to knit a dress, a sweater (in 2 versions) and a pair of shorts. The file is 18 pages long and contains over 50 detailed step-by-step photographs along with full pattern instructions and tips for stuffing, seaming and finishing neatly. It is more of a ‘how to’ manual than a simple knitting pattern. The pattern is for knitting flat on two needles and all pieces are seamed afterwards. There are lots of separate pieces which require seaming and sewing and if you are looking for something fast and easy you would probably be better off finding a different pattern. That said this PDF file will give you all of the information and techniques that you need to knit the little mice pictured. Once paid for it is available for you to instantly download. What you will need: Materials: • Worsted or light aran yarn for the mouse • 4ply/5ply weight yarn in contrasting colours for the clothing • Scraps of black and grey yarn, DK or 4ply for the eyes and facial features • Scraps of 4ply cotton for the tail • Toy stuffing • A tiny button Notions: • Knitting needles: A pair each of 3mm and 2.75mm • Tapestry needle **Pattern updated 25th September 2023:** Correction to Page 15, row 12 there was an extra P1 at the start of the 3rd line – this is now corrected.
