New Cow Patterns

The cow patterns are finished!

As always with my patterns there are 2 versions available:

• one that comes with a naked body, removable shorts and a choice of 2 removable sweaters, one in an Argyle colour-work design and the other in a single colour textured stitch pattern.
• and the other which comes with knitted on tights/pantyhose and shoes and a choice of 2 removable dresses, one in an Argyle colour-work design and the other in a single colour clover lace pattern.

Both patterns include the same range of options for the heads, including a couple of different designs using colour-work patches. There are two different options for the body, either plain or with colour-work patches, and two different options for the horns, long or short.

There are comprehensive instructions for knitting and finishing the cows, including over 100 detailed colour photographs to show the steps and the different options. By combining different colours, horns and amount of hair you can easily tailor the pattern to your needs and make a variety of different cattle breeds, in the pattern I’ve shown Highland, Argyle, Holstein, Friesian, Swiss Brown, Jersey, Redpoll, and White Park cattle. I wanted to try a yak and maybe a bison but ran out of steam, but those might also be possible.

As with all of my other patterns they’re now available on Ravelry, Etsy and will shortly be on Lovecrafts too.

If you decide to give either of the patterns a go I do hope you enjoy them.  As always I am very excited to see my patterns coming to life in the hands of others, happy knitting and thank you so much for your kindness and support xx
