Babies and toddlers will love the fun, huggable little blankets in Animal Levies to Knit. Choose from 10 designs by Yolanda Soto-Lopez: brown bear, bunny, lamb, penguin, duck, owl, puppy, kitten, panda and giraffe. Each Iovie consists of a 12-inch square blanket with the stuffed animal head and arms (or wings) attached at the centre. The designs are all easy to knit with medium weight yarn (with super bulky weight yarn accents on the Lamb); each pattern calls for size 9 (5.5 mm) straight knitting needles and size 8 (5 mm) double-pointed needles (set of 4).
