- Step by step written instructions on A4 .PDF format
- Some assisting photos are also included
Du brauchst:
- DMC Merino Essentiel 4 in Shade #876 Toffee, #880 Cream and #854 Dark Brown
- Single pointed knitting needs Knitting needles size: 5 mm (US: 4)
- Toy stuffing, preferably the synthetic ball type
Children will have hours of fun playing with these hot cross buns. Knitted in DK yarn on smaller needles to keep the weave tighter so that no stuffing can be seen nor pulled out by small fingers. Also great to make for gift and fair products to sell. Knitted flat with 3.5mm (US #5) knitting needles to give a tight weave
The bun is made in two pieces, the bottom, and top half. The raisins are embroidered after being completed with French knots (you could use beads but are not as realistic). The cross is worked simultaneously as the top of the bun piece is worked.
Best of all no need to weave in the yarn tails as it all can be used as part of the stuffing!
