Round 3: *sc, sc2tog* 4 times (8) FO, leaving a 4-5 inch tail for sewing. No need to stuff.
Bunny:
There are a few different methods of making a pom-pom. For this pattern, I used my fingers as the anchor, but if you
are familiar with a different method (such as the fork method) you can use that as well.
Using white yarn, wrap yarn around your index finger and middle finger
approximately 20 times and cut the yarn. With the yarn still wrapped on your
two fingers, slip a new strand of white yarn up between the two fingers,
wrapping it around and tying it in a secure knot. At this point, the yarn should
be tied in a solid bunch and you can slip off the yarn from your fingers. Cut
through the looped ends at each side of the bunch and spread out strands. Trim
uneven strands down to desired size, giving it a “round” shape.
Raccoon/Fox:
Note: Raccoon and Fox share same pattern for tail, however they each have different colour changes. For Fox, start
with white yarn, and change to orange for remainder of tail after Round 4. For Raccoon, start with black yarn, and
starting in Round 4, alternate every 2 rounds between grey and black yarn.
Round 1: Create a Magic Circle, 6sc inside ring (6)
Round 2: sc in each st around (6)
Round 3: *2sc, 2sc in next st* 2 times (8)
Round 4: sc in each st around (8) *For Raccoon: switch to grey and start alternating colours
every 2 rounds here*
Round 5: *3sc, 2sc in next st* 2 times (10) *For Fox: switch to orange*
Round 6: *4sc, 2sc in next st* 2 times (12)
Round 7: *5sc, 2sc in next st* 2 times (14)
Round 8: *6sc, 2sc in next st* 2 times (16)
Rounds 9-12: sc in each st around (16)
Round 13: *2sc, sc2tog* 4 times (12)
Round 14: sc in each st around (12)
*Stuff lightly at this point*
Round 15: *sc, sc2tog* 4 times (8)
Round 16: sc in each st around (8) Flatten end and sc through both sides to close opening. FO,
leaving a 6-8 inch tail for sewing.
Face:
For each animal, the snout should sit roughly between Rounds 10-14. For bear, bunny, owl and fox,
position eyes 2-3 sts apart, sitting just above the snout. For the raccoon, position black eye patches
with the hdc ends pointed towards the middle of the face, 2 sts apart. Patches should sit flush
against the snout. After patches have been sewn into place, sew eyes in bottom/middle corners of
each eye patch. Using tails left over from snout/eyes/nose, embroider eyebrows above each eye. For
owl, use grey yarn to embroider two arches above eyes and 6 “arrows” on chest to indicate feathers.
Ears:
For each animal, position ears on either side of Round 2/3 of head. For
raccoon/fox, sew along the base of triangles to secure into place. For bunny
and bear, flatten ear and sew through final round into head of animal.
Arms/Wings:
For Raccoon/Fox/Bunny, position arms at the front of the body approximately
2-3 sts apart. The last row of sc of each arms should align with Round 21 of
body. For Bear, position arms on the sides of body, lining upthe last row of sc
in the arms with Round 21/22 of body. Sew along last row of sc in arms into body to secure into
place. For Owl, position wings on both sides of body between Rounds 10-15. Sew along top half of
wing to secure into place.
Tails/Belly Patch:
Sew all tails onto lower backs of each animal. Center belly patch
on the front side of fox. Sew along Round 3 of patch to secure
to body.
