Mouche & Friends includes patterns for Mouche the bear and 11 of his knitted friends, their outfits and accessories, as well as charming stories that bring the characters to life. 

Mouche & Friends is a combination of a knitting book and a children’s storybook, as maker Cinthia Valley brings adorable creatures to life with seamless knitting. The readers are taken through the techniques step-by-step with clear, illustrated tutorials, making knitting easy and enjoyable. She also shares her tips on working small circumferences, picking yarns and preparing a toolbox for toy-making.

Cinthia’s toy-making process is unique and totally seamless, which ensures a flowing knitting experience. The animals are knitted with natural fibres and worked in the round, starting from the nose and knitting down to the feet — growing a toy rather than building it.

Cinthia Vallet is a designer living in Nantes, France, with her husband, four children and furry companions. She is known for her charming, seamlessly knitted toy animals. They started to take shape in her mind after she discovered the magic of seamless knitting, and her first pattern was published in 2018. Cinthia realised that if you can make a sock and shape a heel, then you can also shape a little animal directly on the needles. With an aesthetic rooted in her passion for children’s literature, Cinthia develops her characters as an illustrator would do, but with wool and three dimensions. She gives each one a name, a story, a little soul and a lot of herself. Mouche & Friends is her debut book.
