The pattern comes with full instructions for knitting and finishing a badger with removable sweater and shorts. Included are instructions to make 2 sweaters, one is in stranded colourwork and the other knitted in a single colour with a textured design.

The pattern file contains over 60 detailed step-by-step photographs along with full pattern instructions and tips for stuffing, seaming and finishing neatly. The pattern is for knitting flat on two needles and all pieces are seamed afterwards. There are lots of separate pieces which require seaming and sewing and if you are looking for something fast and easy you would probably be better off finding a different pattern. That said this PDF file will give you all of the information and techniques that you need to knit the badger pictured.
