The world needs wild tigers. Make your own

WWF-Denmark, Hobbii and Danish knitting designer Laura Dalgaard have teamed up to create the tiger sweater. The earnings from the sale of the pattern go directly to WWF's Tiger Program and their important work to save the planet’s wild tigers.

How does WWF-Denmark help the tigers of the world?

The wild tigers are endangered. They are hunted by poachers and lack wild nature to live in. WWF-Denmark is fighting to put an end to the illegal trade with wild tigers and shut down the illegal markets. Their rangers patrol control important habitats for the tigers, remove snares and chase away poachers. The work for the tigers also includes the preservation of the wild nature in which the tigers live.

All earnings from the pattern go directly to WWF's Tiger Program.

Which wild tiger will you be making?

Danish knit designer, Laura Dalgaard, has developed 4 color combinations for the tiger sweater to inspire you. The 4 color combinations are named Icon, Rare, Candy and Mint. See all colors here or make your own combination with the Evergreen yarn, which comes in 35 beautiful shades.

PATTERN INFORMATION

Knit a wild tiger sweater and support WWW-Denmark’s work to save the threatened tiger.

You will be working the sweater from the bottom-up, knitting with 2 strands of yarn held together. The tiger is worked using intarsia and finally the details are embroidered onto the finished garment. You will find two charts illustrating this.

If you want, the chart can also be used to embroider a tiger onto one of your old sweaters, thereby giving it new life.
