Go barefoot, let your hair down and wander back to the Summer of Love with Alan Dart's peace-loving pocket pets
Turn back the clock to 1968 with the Hippie Hamsters. They’re sure to bring peace and love into your life – peace and quiet while you’re knitting, and you’ll love the result!
“The clothes are great for using up DK yarn left over from other projects,” says designer Alan Dart. “I used the self-patterning yarn to give the impression of the tie-dye clothes hippies wore back in the 1960s.”
This pattern is available in the August 2012 issue of Simply Knitting (issue 96). The price we've listed is for buying the digital issue from Apple Newsstand.
