What you need to know

In Part Two of Nicola Valiji's dinosaur play bag knitting pattern, we start to embellish our knitted pockets. We start with three dinosaur toy knitting patterns for Spinosaurus, Velociraptor and Ankylosaurus (a.k.a Bumpy from Netflix's Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous). Make a flat piece to embellish the bag and a three-dimensional dinosaur for the matching toy. Download the dinosaur knitting pattern today to continue your knitalong.

How to: increase a knit stitch (m1)

05:35

When you see m1 in a pattern, this is asking you to increase your stitch count by one stitch. It is a left-leaning increase in stocking stitch, and is worked using the horizontal bar between stitches.
