Back on the team, here come the knitted Sporting Heroes!

Posted 15th March 2025

Hello everyone, and a very Happy (if rather belated) New Year to you all - can you believe it's March already?!!

For our part, we're delighted to be kicking off our (nearly) new year's knitting with the release of our updated Sporting Heroes Knitting Pattern, available for purchase right now in Kindle Edition format via the Amazon UK website.

Inspired by six of the world's best known sports - Cricket, Cycling, Football, Golf, Rugby and Tennis - this publication includes all the detail you'll need to knit up and kit out your own team of mini mascot dolls in the colours of your choice.

Featuring several of the sports covered in our now-retired "Knitted Sporting Heroes" pattern booklet (plus a couple of new ones!), and with all-new patterns lovingly re-designed to yield even more detailed results, this collection is best suited to knitters with intermediate to advanced knitting skills.

Sure to prove popular with friends and family alike, these mini mascot dolls measure approximately 14.5cm in height when made to the tension specified in the pattern. And when it comes to expanding your team, rest assured that unlike the real thing, you won't have to break any spending records, since all of the dolls are knitted using budget-friendly acrylic yarn.

So whether it's active sporting or a spot of supporting you've got planned for this summer, we hope you have every bit as much fun in creating your own little squad of dolls as we did in designing them.

If you'd like to read more about this pattern, then please check out our Patterns to Buy page, from where you can click on through to its dedicated page on the Amazon UK website.

Happy knitting, everybody - and the very best of luck to your team!

Clare
