Could I knit a " knitted character?"

My beautiful grandson has said he would love a knitted character as in Harry Hills tv Burp. I have never knitted anything in my life but I would love to give him one. I looked at buying a ready made one but they were £12-99p which seems quite expensive to me. Do you think I could follow a pattern? ( presuming I could find one of course).

If you've never knitted anything in your life I think you might find it difficult, TBH. Can you knit? It looks reasonably simple in shape, however, and there's a knitting pattern on ebay for £1.99 if that helps.

To knit exquisitely is not that hard, you can try to knit one by yourself, definitely you can follow a pattern,this would be much easier and less expensive, but you would spend a lot pf time! anyway, it worth the time, you can knit in future for your other family members. Smile

The Harry Hill 'Knitted Character' was actually crocheted, not knitted, so that first pattern is pretty good. Not so good if you don't crochet, of course.
