Bring a little woodland magic indoors with this original Sincerely Louise forest friend from the faux taxidermy collection. Knitted entirely on straight needles with no working in the round, this characterful deer is a joyful make for confident knitters, with clever shaping and a bit of turning mid-row to create those brilliant antlers. Once stitched up and mounted onto the backing board, it’s ready to hang proudly on your wall.

Keep yours up all year round, or add a bright red nose to transform it into a festive reindeer, either way, it’s guaranteed to raise a smile. A fun, creative project with plenty of personality and a charming addition to any cosy corner.
