First seen in TOFT's mystery crochetalong in the spring of 2018, Owen the Wildebeest now takes his place alongside the most popular members of the menagerie. With their magnificent curving horns, wildebeests are also known as the gnu and cover close to 1600 kilometres every year as they migrate across Kenya and Tanzania. This pattern is the perfect way to expand your crochet skills with a range of new techniques to learn.
This soft toy will look at home in the nursery, sitting on the shelf or lovingly gift-wrapped for the loved ones in your life. Once you've finished crocheting Owen the Wildebeest, you'll be ready to start the next animal in the collection with this addictive new hobby!
