Nuthatches are such colourful and acrobatic birds! Have you ever seen one scuttling up and down a tree in the woods? They are really are incredible to see. Nancy the nuthatch is not really much of a scuttler, though, she’s more of a fan of hopping into your hand for a cuddle. You can knit your very own nuthatch with this fun knitting kit.
Each bird knitting kit is carefully handmade and packed by me, and will contain all the yarn and notions that you need to knit a cuddly nuthatch friend – No need to order all the different yarns and bits and pieces – you can sit back, relax, and start knitting straight away. It's all there for you!
If you'd like to add needles to your kit, a pair of high quality 4mm Pony aluminium knitting needles are £2, and a pack of 2 Pony darning needles are £1.
Your nuthatch knitting kit is presented in a large, stylish gift box, and bundled up in plastic-free, recyclable packaging. This bird knit kit is the perfect, original gift for a knitter, birder, or nuthatch fan - they'll love knitting Nancy, and the kit includes some cute bird stickers for them to enjoy, too!
What's included in your knit kit?
- A full colour printed knitting pattern
- 5 different colours of high quality, soft DK acrylic yarn
- Polyester toy stuffing
- Beads and thread
- Cute bird stickers
Is Nancy suitable for beginners?
Very much so. She is simply knitted flat on a pair of 4mm (UK 8/ US 6) knitting needles, making her an excellent project for a beginner who knows the basics of knitting: no need to knit in the round.
Basic knitting skills that you’ll need to know:
Knit stitch, purl stitch, increasing by knitting into the front and back of a stitch (inc 1) and decreasing by knitting 2 stitches together (k2tog). There’s colour-changing on some rows, so you will need to use Intarsia technique to change yarns mid-row. Head on over to my how to knit tutorials if you need any advice!
All kit and parcel packaging is plastic-free, and recyclable.
The gift box measures 28cm x 19cm x 8cm.
Nancy the Nuthatch is 20cm long.
