A colleague saw the Hippo pattern and ask if I would make it for her 13 month old daughter. She was very pleased with the finished product.
Would also like a full size Hippo if there is one in the pipeline?

I am having such a good time with the patterns I have bought from you. I have enjoyed knitting all my life ( I am almost 89 now). Bigger items are now a bit daunting and knitted clothes are not always wanted now. These small items are cleverly designed and relaxing and easy to knit and in demand by my Great-Grandchildren!
