Seeing an exotic hippopotamus at this time of year is bound to cause a big stir with someone!

Heather Gibbs has him all wrapped up in a fur-trimmed hat and jolly jumper, so he’ll stay warm. Worked in continuous rounds, you’ll work into the front or back loops to add neat details on certain rounds, then bobbles for his cute ears. Plus we show you a different way to work the chunky hat bobble.
