Finished Size: Mr. Toad 7cm, Mole 8cm, Ratty 9cm, Badger 10cm
The boat is 18cm long (Bonus project).
All components are knitted flat and sewn up at the end.
You would need a chenille needle with a sharp point if you would like to create the boat. The crochet hook is used to create chains, and no prior experience with crochet techniques is necessary.
Knitting skills required are the basic knit and purl, however, take care when you are assembling the body parts.
The project calls for small amounts of DK (8-ply weight) yarn. Feel free to use your stash.

11 pages with some assembly photos.
