Apparently fur is back in fashion. In my mind it's never been ok to swan into a fancy party decked in the embalmed remains of one of the forest's furry friends and thankfully most agree. That doesn't stop those of us who admire the animal kingdom longing for a creature companion at such events, which is where Knitty's Vegan Fox comes in.
With a little bit of novelty yarn (how most of us run for the hills at the mere thought of knitting with it) and your basic inc and K2tog you could soon wow the party people with a knitted fibre-based fox draped across your shoulders.
The free pattern comes from Knitty.com which, if you knit but have been living in yarn-stuffed cave for the past few years, is possibly the most fabulous free pattern site out there next to Ravelry.
Get your fur-wearing funk on without death to small creatures. Go on.
