If you’re a royalist and a keen knitter, it’s time to get your knitting needles out!

Creator of the of Knit Your Own Royal Wedding pattern Fiona Goble has created an addition to her popular knitted figurines – the royal baby.

“In preparation for Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge’s new bundle of joy, I’m very happy to announce the arrival of my own little woolly royal. It’s been a privilege to prepare this ‘little extra’ for Catherine and Will dolls in my book,” Fiona said.

Although Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, isn’t expecting until July, Fiona says she hopes she has “captured a good likeness” of the unborn child.

And while she is pleased with her latest addition, Fiona has admitted in the past that Catherine was the “hardest one to create because she is pretty”.
