Always a popular favorite around here, Kirby-Wirby is truly knit perfection on so many levels — from the rainbow legwarmers to the roller skates to the unicorn helmet – I AM IN LOVE! And did you know that there’s a crochet version? It’s true, his name is Gunther, adapted to crochet by Jennifer Spokane, aka The Left-Handed Crocheter, whose quirky designs I’ve shared several times in the past. What a dream team!

Get the Kirby-Wirby pattern via Ravelry, designed by fellow Canadian, Heliinä Murray.

Inspiring work from Camp Happy Heart Fibre Arts – connect with the maker behind the cuteness, Heliinä Murray, on Instagram, Ravelry, and Facebook.
