Hankering for Yarn

Spool knitted Rat Bookmark -2

by Noreen on February 28th, 2008

 In my last posting, I showed how I shaped the spool knitting to make the spool knitted rat bookmark.

Here’s how I made the head of the rat.

(I can’t believe I just wrote  that!  LOL!)

 Thread the yarn end into a darning needle, fold back the last 10 stitches, and stitch through the cord.

Make the neck by wrapping around the cord and stitching in place to secure it.

The ears are 2 loop stitches.

 Take one strand of yarn through a fine needle, and stitch two red beads for eyes. Stitch into wraps at neck to anchor.

Next: Make the body….

(Please send people the Url to this tutorial, don’t copy and ’share’ it…. it’s a lot of work to do this! Thank you!)
