Top knit tip

Mobiles make great additions to any baby’s room but make sure you hang them well out of reach. If you’re choosing to use these items as toys rather than a hanging decoration, be sure to use safety toy stuffing and sew all the parts together really securely.

Meet the designer

Nicola Valiji is a regular designer for Let's Knit Together – she first learned how to knit while making a Jean Greenhowe doll with help from her nan. If you enjoyed making this pattern, why not make her dream bunting for baby's nursery? You can view more of Nicola's designs here.
