The Beatrix Potter Knitting Book

Product Information

As always, a huge thank you to all you toymakers who get in touch with such encouraging and flattering comments about my work.

The late Lesley Draper very kindly and generously set up and acted as admin on the Alan Dart Creations group for several years, and now her daughter-in-law, Joanne Lyon, has opened a new group called Alan Dart’s Creations and Memories in memory of Lesley and to carry on her work. This is another great and friendly place to share photographs of your handiwork, discuss and compare what is currently on your needles, swap useful tips with one another and ask for advice. What better way to have a chat and make friends with other crafters from far and wide who share your interest in knitting my toys?Dot Pebbles is listed in the From Britain with Love directory here>> How to receive all of Claire’s free patterns Heritage carrots pattern (this is included in the latest version of the Peter Rabbit pattern.

The amounts of yarn quoted in the patterns are approximate, and are given as a guide only, because different qualities of yarn vary in weight – for example, wool weighs heavier than acrylic. Similarly, the amount of stuffing quoted is based on using a ‘hi-loft’ polyester stuffing, since inferior fillings weigh much heavier and you will therefore end up needing more to stuff the toy.I know just how much love there is for Claire Garland’s (aka Dot Pebbles Knits) patterns in the FBWL knitting community, so I thought you might enjoy making this adorable knitted mouse from The Story of Miss Moppet by Beatrix Potter. He has also designed knitting patterns of the following licensed character toy collections, all of which are now out of print and no longer available since the license for each has expired: Please do not be tempted to substitute dried peas or lentils for the PVC beanbag granules, which are available from Fred Aldous, as these can harbour mites and become unpleasant should the toy get damp.
