Puddles the Mallard duck is paddling in the pond! Knitted mostly in stockinette with increases and decreases for shaping, Puddles uses intarsia colour-work and has knitted bobbles for toes. To make a standing duck, insert wire or wooden dowelling inside the legs, however please do not do so if making the toy for a young child for safety reasons. Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, the duck is knitted in acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round).
