Flying knitted piglets
You can do this pattern with every kind of yarn and needles. the thicker your yarn, the bigger your piglet.
For the body:
Cast on 24 st and knit 2 rows.
Now start the butt:
Knit 11, make 1, knit 2, make 1, knit 11
knit the next row.
K 12, m 1, k 2, m 1, k 12
Knit next row.
K13, m 1, k 2, m 1, k 13
Knit next row. you should have 30 st.
Cast off 6 st on both ends.
Knit 10 rows.
Make 6 st on both sides.
And knit 6 rows.
Cast off the 6 st on every side.
Now start the head:
Knit 4 rows,
K 6, k 2 tog, k 2, k 2 tog, k 6,
Knit one row,
K 5, k 2 tog, k 2, k 2 tog, k 5,
Knit one row,
K 4, k 2 tog, k 2, k 2 tog, k 4,
Knit one row,
Continue until you only have 6 st left and cast off.
For the ears:
Cast on 5 st,
Knit 6 rows. (i wanted my ears to be big, so i did 6 st and knitted 7 rows)
K 2 tog, k 1, k 2 tog.
Knit one row,
Slip 1, k 2 tog, drag the first st over the other one and close it.
You need two ears of course.
For the wings:
as the yarn you made the piglet out of, you should probably use more.
Finishing:
Sew the pigs legs to tubes and close its nose and belly.
Now you can put wool inside and close it.
Also the ears and wings need attaching. (it looks very cute if you fold the ears) and if you want a tail: just cochet 6 chain st
