Ewok Sweaters

Ewok sweaters:

Supplies:

US 2 needles

Sock yarn
4 stitch markers

Closures (snaps, Velcro, etc.)

Darning needle

Ewoks

Notes:

In a mix bag of Star Wars Ewoks that was purchased from a flea market I noticed there were 3 varieties.  The sweaters are generally the same for all three, but changes may be needed depending on the neck, body or arm length. Patterns have not been thoroughly tested. Ewok 2 I will be making more than once so I will update if I find anything major.
