Two smiling faces – a brown bull and a sweet cow with a little pink rose between her ears – with big pink muzzles, button eyes, soft ears, white horns and a hanging loop. Use it as a potholder, coaster, table mat, wall decoration or appliqué – or make two, sew them together and stuff them for a small pillow. A cheerful kitchen decoration and a lovely gift for the Year of the Ox or anyone who loves cows.
An easy pattern by Svetlana Zabelina with step-by-step instructions, charts and photos; all stitches are explained in the pattern. Both the bull and the cow are included.
