Collaboration Kit with designer Claire Garland Dot Pebbles knits, author of Magical Woodland Knits
All the characters are made of 100% Italian cashmere in this kit, apart from piglet who is in Alpaca, the cashmere version will be ready in December.
When knitted, Winnie the Pooh will be approx. 20cm/ 8 in tall, piglet will be approx. 11.2cm/ 4.5 in tall, Eeyore will be approx. 24cm/ 9.5in long from muzzle to rear end, Kanga will be approx. 22cm/ 8.7in tall from tips of ears to sole of feet; Roo will be approx. 10cm/4in tall from tips of ears to sole of feet, Tigger will be approximately 24cm (9.5in) long (tail outstretched)
The patterns are included with the kit printed and digitally by request ( Etsy doesn't allow physical product to have a digital download ) .
A bath for your knitted animals is highly recommended especially for these made of cashmere, to complete the “blooming” and you can shape them to perfection whilst damp ( I am in love with the cute fluffy bum of Roo )!
We have included a CLOTHES DOCTOR cashmere and wool wash with the kit, which is lightly scented with Himalayan Cedarwood and Orange oil, to provide natural moth defence. Soak them in luke warm water with a dash of the wash for 10-15 minutes, run another clean bath to give them a rinse, press with dry towels to get the most of the moisture out, shape your little friends whilst damp, leave them somewhere airy to dry, and watch the cashmere bloom!

“Today was a Difficult Day,” said Pooh.
There was a pause.
“Do you want to talk about it?” asked Piglet.
“No,” said Pooh after a bit. “No, I don’t think I do.”
“That’s okay,” said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend.
“What are you doing?” asked Pooh.
“Nothing, really,” said Piglet. “Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don’t feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either.
“But goodness,” continued Piglet, “Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you’ve got someone there for you. And I’ll always be here for you, Pooh.”
And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs…he thought that his best friend had never been more right.”
— A.A. Milne
