Andy Hippo Knitting Kit

Andy the Hippo knitting kit. Andy is perfect for a loved one who loves to go on a safari. We love Andy the Hippo's cute contrasting tiny ears. He is super-cool with all his features on the top of his head to snooze comfortably. In ancient Egypt, hippos were believed to bring luck and protection. 

Andy is the perfect adventure companion for your little ones, made in our machine washable Baby Beau yarn, great for sticky little fingers and a busy family life. Being such a huggable hippopotamus, he will make a great addition to your collection or be an adorable new friend for your loved one.

Andy the Hippo is an 'easy' pattern, perfect for someone who knows the knitting basics and is looking for their next challenge.
