This is a downloadable PDF knitting pattern
Inspired by the beautiful Narwhals found in the Arctic Sea. Nerissa is knitted with chunky marbled wool doubled up to get a random skin effect on her topside and white yarn is used for her underside. Starting by shaping her tail fin and work up the tail to the side fins. Working briefly in intarsia to highlight the mouth, she is finished by decreasing to shape the crown. Nerissa’s eyes are knitted separately and attached to the head. Nerissa is completed with her magnificent horn which is actually a large "tusk" from a protruding canine tooth.
