Winnie the Pooh knitting patterns to love by the stitch magician that is Claire Garland aka Dot Pebbles Knits.
I always feel a slight thrill when I discover that Claire has created a new pattern. As a lifelong lover of the Winnie the Pooh books by A A Milne (illustrated so touchingly by E H Shepard), this new collection of patterns thrilled me even more than usual.
There’s a slightly floppy and very cuddly Eeyore, sweetest little Piglet and jolly Pooh-inspired bear (called Honey Bear). If you’re a fan of the characters like me, or have a little one in your life who is, I’m thinking you (we) probably need to get knitting! The difficult decision is which to make first?
Eeyore knitting pattern
I think this one might be my favourite of the three. It’s the personality that Claire manages to get into her creations that makes them so special don’t you think?
Eeyore pattern info: Finished size approx. 24cm/ 9.5in tall
Knitted flat, on two straight knitting needles but with minimal seaming
Yarn-wise: Claire knitted hers with Cardiff Cashmere (4-ply) – in shades Fumo, Piomo, Saki and Nero.
– but, as always you can use what you like/ have.
You’ll also need some toy eyes – Claire buys the washer back ones, the size she used here is written within the pattern. See more images and get further info on this Eeyore from Claire’s Winnie the Pooh knitting patterns collection here: https://www.frombritainwithlove.com/eeyore-knitting-pattern/
Piglet knitting pattern
I know I said Eeyore was probably my favourite of the three but now I think I might need to change my mind… and choose Piglet. Just look at him! He’s also perfectly pocket-sized so sure to become a much-loved favourite of little ones in your life. See more images of Piglet and get more info about this pattern here: Piglet knitting pattern
Winnie the Pooh inspired bear knitting pattern
So I did say that Eeyore and then Piglet are my favourites. And I stand by that, but I do also love this cuddly little bear. Without the lovable bear himself, there’d be no Winnie the Pooh after all. So I’m thinking the solution to picking just one favourite is to commit to knitting all three and making a set.
