Learn how to knit the head and tail of a zebra with this free pattern by Sherri Sagers. It’s a super cute stuffed animal – which makes the perfect personalized gift for a baby shower, your own child, or even yourself. :-)

This knitting pattern uses stockinette stitch and basic increases and decreases. It also uses fringe stitch for the mane and chain-loop stitches for the tail.
