Sleepy Fox

As soon as I ran across the Knit Sleepy Fox Amigurumi pattern, I immediately fell in love and cast on.

I have been recently obsessed with woodland animals and could not resist this tiny baby sleeping fox. 

He is SO cute!

I knit this little fox out of scraps of Rowan Felted Tweed DK on a size 3 needle. I love the effect of the tweedy texture and slight halo in the knitted fabric. 

I am excited to report that my son loves him too and has been playing with him during the day.

It is always so nice to see knitted toys being loved and used!

But when he is not being held, this little sleepy fox has a nice snuggly place to rest on my son's pillow.
