This is Pickles the dinosaur, best friend of Buttons the hippo. Say hi to Pickles
Pickles was knit in the round in hexiknit style on 12 inch cables. The green is a local dyer with a merino wool and the blue spikes are a special yarn with a little bit of glittery lurex spun through. Pickles was adapted from an African flower crochet pattern. Pickles has no knitting pattern that is official but once you learn hexiknits you can convert nearly any African flower crochet to a knit pattern. Pickles is stuffed with extra wool and holds heat amazingly well. He is nonverbal and can grant wishes, which I think is pretty neat.
