King Cole Primate Pals Book 1 is a charming collection of knitted jungle animals created by renowned toy‑knitting designer Carol Connelly. Featuring adorable primates made in King Cole Truffle, Big Value DK 50g, and Moments yarns, this book offers a delightful mix of characterful designs perfect for gifting, playtime, or cosy cuddles.

This beautifully presented pattern book brings together three much‑loved jungle favourites: Chimpanzees, Marmosets, and Ring‑Tail Lemurs. Each animal is designed with personality and warmth, capturing the playful expressions and sweet features that make Carol Connelly’s toy patterns so popular. Whether you’re knitting for a child, a collector, or simply for the joy of making, these primates are sure to bring a smile.

To give you plenty of creative choice, each animal comes in three different styles:

• a sitting version, perfect for display or cuddles

• a baby version, small, cute, and quick to knit

• a standing/climbing version, full of character and fun

The combination of Truffle’s soft fur texture, Big Value DK’s smooth finish, and the fluffy charm of Moments yarn creates wonderfully tactile toys with beautiful detail. Clear instructions and thoughtful shaping make these patterns enjoyable for confident beginners through to experienced toy knitters.

Whether you’re making a single special friend or the whole troop, Primate Pals Book 1 offers hours of creative enjoyment and produces keepsake toys that will be treasured for years.
