Immediately, The Middle Child begged, pleaded, whined, "Mommyyyyyy?? Can you PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE knit me this cute pig???"
Big Gulp. Looked hard. But I checked out the book (in fact, I loved it so much I have since ordered a copy!). And I happened to have some pink yarn in my stash (when the heck did I start a yarn stash???). And here is what I made:
Sweet piggy tail (thanks, Kathy!):
A-DOR-able fabric details in the ears and on the feet:
And a very happy daughter:
It was actually quite simple. Honest! I am pretty certain I will be making 95% of the cuties in this book. It is so well written and photographed, I would recommend it to everyone!

Oh how stinkin' cute is this piggy!?? Now why don't I know how to knit? This adorable piggy is worth the effort to learn, eh? Your daughter is one very lucky little girl to have such a talented mommy. I love the fabric detail on piggy's little tootsies. Wonderful!
It's sooooooo cute! =) If you could share how to make it, it would be great! ;)
So cute!
Amazing! So cute. I have got to learn how to knit!
So cute! I love knit and crochet toys. :)
Adorable! The pig would be my first choice too. :)
That is so cute. I can't wait to see what else you make from the book; I'm liking the look of the frog on the front.
Oh my goodness ... I already can tell I'll need to dust off my knitting needles and track down a copy of that book ... My little girl LOVES pigs! That is too cute!
Stop it! STOP IT! I am thiiiiis close to taking up knitting with all your cute projects tantalizing me.
OMG!! This piglet is charming!!
That pig is really stinkin' cute. I knit a stuffed pig once upon a time - but it ended up not turning out nearly as well. It was knit in multiple pieces and the pattern had no directions for how to sew it up. Needless to say, my improv skills need improvement.
So cute! Made me smile! : )
I have this book, the patterns are gorgeous and with four little girly grandaughters to cater for it was a good buy.
Love your sweet piggy.
That is the sweetest little pig, almost makes me wish that i could knit! x
That is very cute! I am not brave enough to try that yet, but maybe one day. I love the frog on the cover!
The fabric details really make it! DAR-ling is right!
OMG I love those knitted animals! And you knit too?!? Wow!!!
Thank you all for your lovely comments. I am so pleased you have enjoyed knitting the patterns from my book. Laura x
