Mr. Gobbles is super excited for Thanksgiving. Why? Because this house is vegan, or so he thinks…. Invite Mr. Gobbles to your holiday celebration. This adorable hot pad is crocheted with worsted weight yarn. The head and feathers are crocheted in sc. Eyes, beak, snood and pilgrim hat are stitched separately and sewn on and surface slip stitches outline the head.

FINISHED SIZE: approximately 8½” by 7”.

SKILL LEVEL: Intermediate; pattern requires familiarity with working with multiple colors in a row.

GAUGE: 5 rows, 4 sts in sc = 1”.
Gauge ratio is important. The stitch is slightly wider than tall. If your gauge is off, your image will be skewed from the original design.
