Using needles and thread, knitting designer Claire Garland (@claire_garland) creates realistic stuffed animals that she sells online and shares with her more than 120,000 followers on Instagram.

Claire is from the UK and lives in a cosy cottage at the very far South West of England in Cornwall on the coast... Wow, slow down! You don't want to give your full address on here! Don't trust Domestika fans just because they like cute stuffed animals...! Actually, I'd be extra cautious for that very reason!

Claire will teach you how to knit a bespoke puppy in the free PDF I will undisclosed shortly... Patience But did you know Garland can teach you how to knit much more?

In her full Domestika course you'll be able to explore creative knitting techniques to bring all kinds of authentic-looking animals to life and fill them up with personality using different patterns and shapes... Just remember they are not truly alive... So don't try to taxidermy them, either!

This download is packed full of information... 42 pages of text and images to be exact...! You will even learn a new language: The knit language... That's the name I just came up with, I'm as surprised as you are...

Here's some knit language vocabulary translated to English:

k = knit
p = purl
inc = increase
dec = decrease
k2tog/ k3tog = knit two together/ knit three together
p2tog/ p3tog = purl two together/ purl three together
RH/LH = right hand/ left hand RS/WS = right side/ wrong side
st/ sts = stitch/ stitches
skpo = slip one stitch, knit next stitch, pass slipped stitch over knit stitch to decrease by one stitch kfb = knit into front then into back of stitch to increase by one stitch
pfb = Purl into front then knit into back of stitch to increase by one stitch

Wow, you need to learn how to code to knit nowadays, too! Can you play chess with the knitted puppy once it's finished...?

Well, this article ends with the gruesome surgical image above!

On that note, if you are looking for extra inspiration don't look up "Casper's Creatures"... I warned you!

You didn't get high enough grades to become a veterinary surgeon...? With Domestika you can play pretend and learn through your knitted models... And for regular people you can just knit for fun regularly, too:
