Notes • Make a quick read of the whole pattern before you start crocheting. • The pattern is worked in rounds without joining the rounds. Use a stitch marker so you know where a round begins. • Crochet very tight, so the toy keep its shape and stuffing won’t show through the stitches. • You can make a bigger toy by using a larger size of hook and thicker yarn (adjust the size of the eyes too).
