completamente apaixonada por este camarão! Mesmo com um inglês basico ja consegue seguir essa receita.
Such a cute pattern! Very easy to follow. I modified slightly because I needed it to be a crawfish instead of a shrimp lol

I really love the positive and encouraging atmosphere in the facebook group and on discord.
I adored making Luna, the pattern was clear and a joy to work up! Mine turned out larger due to yarn weight I used, but I love her!

By now I have lost count of how many CALs I have made with Garnknuten. But they are so much fun and the characters are so cute. And Tom the Tiger is no exception. Love him! The little scarf was also the icing on the cake :D

Vid det här laget har jag tappat räkningen på hur många CALs jag har gjort med Garnknuten. Men de är så roliga och figurerna blir så himla söta. Och Tigern Tom är inget undantag. Älskar honom! Den lilla scarfen blev också pricken över i:t :D
The cutest pattern ever 😍
As with the previous pattern from Garnknuten, this one is also great! Clear instructions for a great results!
Easy pattern to follow and lovely result :) 10/10 Recommend
I saw this cute pattern last fall but didn’t get around to making it. When fall rolled around this year, I put it at the top of my list. I watched the videos from the October 2021 CAL, but purchased the written pattern since I decided to make multiples. The pattern is clear and easy to follow. It was also easy to alter to make slightly smaller bats. I recommend her patterns…they are so cute!

I made Leopold as a gift for a 1 year old. He was perfect! Super cute and quick to make. Few parts to sew, which I, not being one for sewing, appreciated. As usual, great instructions and easy to follow the pattern.

Gjorde Leopold som en present till en 1-åring. Han var perfekt! Supersöt och snabbgjord. Rätt lite som ska sys, vilket jag som inte gillar att sy uppskattade. Som vanligt bra instruktioner och enkelt att följa med i mönstret.
