Full description

Big Ben and Little Ben are handy little robots.

Big Ben has a back pocket for stashing secrets or spare fuel packs, and a concealed front panel with buttons. He also has an aerial which can be used as a handle for carrying around. Now I just need to figure out how to program him to do my ironing….

This listing is for patterns for you to knit your own robot chums, and although it is designed for beginners, experienced knitters may also enjoy making their own toy.

The pattern is 27 pages, and is written row by row so it is easier for beginners to follow, and includes instructions and step by step construction photos to help you make your robots.

To make Little Ben you will need to know how to knit, purl, cast on, cast off, i-cord and sewing seams. To make Big Ben, you will also need to be able to knit two stitches together (K2TOG), knit front and back (KFB), and yarnover (YO).

The pattern includes photo tutorials on how to change colours, make i-cord, increase (KFB) and decrease (K2TOG) stitches, sew seams and make a yarnover buttonhole.

All pieces are knitted flat on straight needles (except the i-cord aerial which is made on two double pointed needles).

Please note that this is not a listing for a finished item. This listing is for the knitting patterns only.

Finished Size: Big Ben 30 cm tall, Little Ben 17 cm tall

Materials and equipment needed:

- 3 mm straight needles and two 3mm double pointed needles

- double knit wool in grey, orange, light blue and dark blue

- Felt fabric and buttons

- Toy stuffing

You will also need a tapestry needle to sew all the knitted pieces together.

You can choose different yarns and needle sizes to those suggested above to make your own original robot pals.

The patterns will be emailed to you in pdf format within 3 days of cleared payment, although I do endeavour to send your pattern to you within 24 hours of payment. I only accept Paypal payments. Payment needs to be made within 3 days of purchase. If you have trouble receiving your pattern please let me know. Please can you also check your junk mail folders.

If you wish to pay by cheque, please contact me before purchasing.
