King Cole Animal Kingdom Knitting Pattern 9229 – Reptile Friends brings together a trio of surprisingly cute, smiley and wonderfully cuddly reptile characters. Knitted in King Cole Animal Kingdom yarn alongside Big Value Chunky and Big Value DK, these soft, friendly creatures have plush textures, gentle markings and charming expressions that make them perfect for gifting, playtime or adding a fun handmade touch to any collection.

This pattern includes three adorable reptile friends, each with its own character and cosy appeal:

• Crocodile – approx. 37cm long

• Snake – approx. 100cm long

• Turtle – approx. 19 × 31cm

Each toy uses its matching Animal Kingdom shade for a beautifully soft, natural look: Crocodile 6314, Snake 6313, and Turtle 6312 Jaguar. The plush eyelash texture of Animal Kingdom yarn gives the Crocodile and Snake their gentle, strokable “scales”, while the Turtle’s shell gains a lovely mottled effect that feels both soft and huggable. You will require 3.5mm, 4.5mm and 5mm needles, along with Toy Eyes and Toy Filling to bring their friendly faces and cuddly shapes to life.

Clear, easy‑to‑follow instructions make this pattern enjoyable for confident beginners through to experienced toy knitters. The combination of soft shaping, expressive features and plush yarns results in three lovable reptile companions full of personality and charm.
