Jean Greenhowe - knitted dolls - Fabulous Fun-Knits

I really enjoyed making this mermaid.The instructions were easy to follow. She is going to charity as I cannot keep everything I make. I hope she makes a child very happy.I made her mainly in the colours of the pattern but you could interpret her how you wish.I recommend.

I have most of Jean Greenhow's books/patterns, but this one was a bit disappointing. I bought it as I wanted the mermaid pattern, but the other toys in the book are a rather odd collection, including a cowbiy and cowgirl, ladybirds, cars and some random halloween pumpkins. The booklet itself is the usual good quality and the patterns are clearly printed with all the necessary, simple instructions. I specifically wanted this particular pattern as I said, but if I had just bought this to expand my pattern collection, I might have been tempted to return it, as I can't see me making anything else in this book.

Arrived very quickly (next day) Like all of Jean Greenhowe patterns they are easy to follow even for a beginner. The patterns are ideal for using up those odd bits of wool we all seem to have left over.

I always look forward to receiving a new Jean Greenhowe book and this was no disappointment, fabulous, quirky and easy to knit patterns - I especially love the knitters desert island with balls of wool growing on trees!

A few nice patterns love the crab

I love jeans patterns- so easy to follow, classic and happy makes. Really recommended

I have used Jean Greenhowe's patterns for many years and loved them.However this one is quite disappointing and not up to the standard that I expected. Sorry.

Loved it. It was so easy to knit and my great niece loves it. I added some sequins and beads which turned out well.
