Our pterodactyl knitted flying dinosaur toy in striking yellow yarn has bat-like wings and a crest on its head. The pterodactyl is not strictly a dinosaur but was in fact a type of flying reptile - part of the pterosaur family. As it lived in the same period as the dinosaurs, in the late Jurassic period, we have decided to add it to our knitted dinosaur toys family. Pterodactyls would have been approximately the same size as modern birds such as eagles and hawks.
if you are looking for unique gift ideas for kids, a knitted pterodactyl will fit the brief! Also available as a large dinosaur cuddly toy and a small baby rattle.
GILES PTERODACTYL
Meet our favourite Pterodactyl, Giles
He's a wild and crazy, orange reptile
He's very loud and lots of fun
And he'll make you laugh when you are feeling glum.

Knitted Highland Cow Soft Toy with Stripe Jumper
Our knitted Highland Cow soft toy in a gorgeous bright stripe jumper has proven to be a best seller in our soft toy range.
Highland cows originated in the Scottish Highlands and the Western Islands with long horns and a long shaggy coat. They are not usually seen in the wilds of Scotland wearing stripey jumpers, though we think it could be a lovely addition. Our adorable Highland cow teddy is perfect for cuddles and imaginative play with its shaggy coat, soft horns and appealing little face beneath a floppy fringe.
