Knitted Meerkats

Description

The growing popularity of meerkats over the last few years has elevated them to something approaching cult status, and now these playful creatures have been immortalised in yarn by Sue Stratford, who has created 20 fun meerkat characters to knit. All of the meerkats in this book are based on the same easy-to-follow pattern, which is then transformed into a beach babe, rock star, bride, gardener, golfer, skier - to name just a few- by simply using different coloured yarns and dressing them in different knitted outfits.
