Mouche & Friends

Mouche & Friends includes patterns for Mouche the bear and 11 of his knitted friends, their outfits and accessories, as well as charming stories that bring the characters to life.

Maker Cinthia Vallet brings her characters to life with little stories, creating a charming combination of a knitting book and a children’s storybook. Cinthia walks her readers through the techniques step-by-step with clear, illustrated tutorials, which makes knitting easy and enjoyable. She also shares her tips on working small circumferences, picking yarns and preparing a toolbox for toy-making.

Cinthia’s toy-making process is unique and totally seamless, which ensures a flowing knitting experience. The animals are knitted with natural fibres and worked in the round, starting from the nose and knitting down to the feet — growing a toy rather than building it.
