Huggins the Hippo

Description

A hippopotamus can weigh up to 3.5 tons; thankfully this little fellow is a little lighter to carry! This cuddly hippo is knitted predominantly in stockinette, with garter stitch feet. Designed by Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, the hippo is knitted in acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (not in the round). For confident beginners and above, other techniques used include casting on and off, knits, purls, increases and decreases, and seaming to finish.
