Our piggy is knit from the snout to his bottom with panels of colourwork knit between the shaped sections. Legs, ears and an i-cord tail are knit separately and sewn on.

Plum Pudding Pig is inspired by the Oxford Sandy and Black, a hardy outdoor breed with patches of black colouring and a gentle temperament.
