Supplies:

1. Yarn: This example is crocheted from sport weight mercerized

cotton yarn, 50g = 125m. You won't need a full skein of any color. I
have used the following shades:

– white: (Kartopu Organica – Code: K010)

– light pink: (Schachenmayr Catania – Code: 246)
– yellow: (Kartopu Organica – Code: K1335) or cherry (Kartopu
Organica – Code: K254) for the collar.

2. Polyester fiberfill
3. Crochet hook: 2,5 mm, or in accordance with the yarn you use.
4. Stitch marker, or a little piece of a different color yarn.
5. Darning or embroidery needle.
6. One pair of 6 mm black safety eyes. One piece of 6mm pink
safety nose.
7. 30 cm of black embroidery thread for the face, 20-20cm pink
embroidery thread for the muzzle and the navel.
8. A tiny button or pearl (and a tiny bell if desired) for the yellow collar.

Notes:

--- Work in continuous rounds. Do not join or turn if not instructed in the pattern.
--- Use a stitch marker. Place it at the last stitch of the row and always move it up when working always to
the last stitches of the rows.
--- When finishing any of the body parts except the head and the back side of the ears leave a long yarn tail
(around 20 cm) which you can use for sewing.
--- Fill the stuffing into the body parts while crocheting them. Be sure that you fill the legs and arms with the
same amount of fiberfill, so legs and arms at the left and right side will have the same shape.
--- For the thinner parts, like arms, leave the starting yarn tail on the outside of the piece, so you will be able
to fix it, and hide it into the piece with a help of an embroidery needle after finishing the piece.
