This adorable knit kit contains all the yarn and notions that you need to knit Beneduck Cumberquack the handsome mallard!

Beneduck is soft and cuddly, and just the right size to sit in your hand for a comforting squeeze.

Your knit kit is handmade in the Scottish Highlands, and will contain all the yarn and notions that you need to knit Beneduck – simply add your own pair of 4mm (UK 8/ US 6) knitting needles, a yarn darning needle and an ordinary sewing needle, and you're ready to go. No need to order all the different yarns and bits and pieces – you can sit back, relax, and start knitting straight away. It's all there for you!

Everything is presented in a stylish 28cm gift box, making this knit kit the perfect gift for a knitter, duck lover, or Benedict Cumberbatch fan - they'll love knitting Beneduck, and the kit includes a cute duck button badge for them to wear, too!

What's included in your knit kit?

A 4-page printed knitting pattern
7 different colours of high quality, soft DK acrylic yarn
Polyester toy stuffing
Black beads
Black cotton thread
A Beneduck Cumberquack button badge

All kit and parcel packaging is plastic-free, and recyclable.

Is Beneduck easy to knit?

Very. He is simply knitted flat on a pair of 4mm(UK 8/ US 6) knitting needles, making him an excellent project for an absolute beginner: no need to knit in the round. Basic skills that you need to know: stocking stitch, increasing by knitting into the front and back of a stitch (inc 1) and decreasing by knitting 2 stitches together (k2tog).
