This little whale is a fun, easy project that can be made in around half an hour. It makes a perfect gift and is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand. This pattern, like most of my other patterns, is written in full terms, no abbreviations, making it a perfect first project for beginners. There are also more animals in the "Little animals" collection, including a mouse, pig, chicken, dog, sheep and cat.
