Kolobok, the runaway bun from the Russian fairy tale: a round, sunny yellow ball with a cheeky smile, sitting on a tree stump surrounded by curly green grass and red fly agaric mushrooms. A sweet storytelling toy, a puppet theatre character or a cheerful shelf decoration.
A knitting pattern by Svetlana Zabelina with step-by-step instructions, tips and process photos. Only Kolobok and the stump are included (the other fairy-tale characters are separate patterns).
