Mango is a lovely, huggable giraffe, just waiting to be made for the child in your life. Have fun and enjoy!

Mango can be made in just about any color combination. He has a moss stitch muzzle and hoofs, and the pattern includes instructions for both hearts and square spots.

Mango is about 22 inches tall and is knit in the round, using stitches such as m1, k2tog, moss stitch, kfb, p2tog, and ssk.

You will need three colors of worsted-weight yarn, each less than one skein.

A few combinations I have used:
Pink Mango: Cascade 220 in dark pink, light pink, and dark blue.
Green Mango: Cascade 220 in dark green (8894), light green (8910), and dark blue.

Skill Level: Intermediate

At 22 inches tall, Mango is a bold, huggable friend and a standout handmade baby or nursery gift.
