This was made using sparkle pink and sparkle purple yarn that I picked up in Poundland (UK)
I do not remember what pattern it is but I do know it was in one of the knitting magazines my friend had picked up.
It was fun to make though.. Admittedly I hadnt long started knitting at this point so my friend at the time helped me sew it up. Just wish I had made another for myself lol hopefully I can find out what magazine it came from and perhaps attempt to pick up a copy :)
I myself cannot answer the question as to which magazine he came from but you might ask in open forum if anyone knows so you may either search the forum for it or bounty it. Very good luck either way.
