This knit picture cloth is an inquisitive duck. The picture shows a duck in an upright walking position facing to the right. It is a nearly solid design with some spaces to suggest the outline of his wing.
The design is not symmetrical so lefty knitters might need to make some adjustments if it matters which way the duck is facing.
The picture is created in garter stitch on a stockinette background. The border is seed stitch, but the pattern is written so that you may substitute a preferred border if you wish.
