    About

    This is for my cousins grandsons to enjoy playing against each other in games of skittles

    Pattern

    Bowling Set by Angela Turner

    This pattern is from:
    Issue 125 of Knit Today

    Needles & Hooks

    • Single Point 3.00mm (US 2.5)

    Accessories

    • Tapestry Needle
    • Stuffing
    Other : a 12cm styrofoam ball for the bowling ball, cardboard for the base and lentils inside food bags for ballast in the skittles. I brought a basket to store them in and added a small brass heart with "Handmade with Love" the side of it.

    Measurements

    Notes: I knitted the skittles and ball as per the pattern, but as I am not good at Swiss Darning and I wanted it to be perfect I worked out a pattern for knitting the number one as I went along, using the intarsia method.

      Good job much safer than the real ones they should get a lot of fun playing with them.
