Love your sofa?
Why not cuddle up for the night with this super cute and squashy couch potato. It’s even soft enough to use as a pillow if you need to have a quick nap. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
It’s a great gag or housewarming gift and adds a fun touch to any room without being overwhelming.
The ButterflyLove Couch Potato pdf knitting pattern gives you clear step by step instructions and handy hints along the way to help you make the perfect sofa companion. Your finished couch potato should measure approximately 11 inches high and 9 inches wide - a lovely size to cuddle!
This pattern is suitable for a beginner knitter. Please note however that it’s a large project, so do allow at least couple of evenings, or even a week, to create your potato.
