Cuddly Caterpillar

KNITTING PATTERN DESIGN BY AMANDA BERRY

Squishy, super-colourful and filled with fun details, this cute Cuddly Caterpillar doubles up as a draught excluder too!

Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, the caterpillar body is knitted in acrylic DK yarns in the round using circular needle for magic loop, or you can use a set of DPNs if you prefer. The eyes and cheeks are knitted flat (back and forth) on a pair of single pointed knitting needles.
