    About

    It started with one rabbit, Peter, and then they just started to breed. After Peter was Lily, quickly followed by Benjamin and then of course the girls, Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail.Each character will eventually have an option to knit it as a toy (with feet) or as a puppet / egg cosy.

    Just toying with the idea of creating Mrs Tiggy-Winkle, Squirrel Nutkin and any other characters. What do you think?

    Accessories

    Other : I used a variety of DK, no more than 10g 35oz of any colour.

    Measurements

    Notes: Toy stands approximately 5 inches (13 cm) from feet to top of ears. Cosy is approximately 4 1/4 inches (11 cm)

      Really love the little characters you’ve created! My niece loves these stories and would love to make something like these for her-could even adapt as finger puppets too for the characters to “speak”/act out the stories while reading the books to children. Can’t wait for the patterns :)

      They are really lovely. If you create and sale the pattern I will be among the first to buy it. Your knitting is absolutely knockout. Beatrix Potter was a very outstanding lady and I think would be very proud to see her little knitted family. I have been looking on e-bay for Peter Rabbit patterns but they are so expensive. Hopefully you are the new Alan Dart for these little characters. Can't wait to see more. They are a joy🐰🐺 Perhaps Mr McGregor as well!!!

        Thank you so much, I’ll definitely be lusting the pattern and price will include all the characters so far, so hopefully will prove to be value for money x
