This pattern uses the amigurumi method of working in spirals.

The body of this pattern is worked as one piece from the toes to the shoulders, so no need for too much tedious hand sewing!

• dk/light worsted (8ply) yarn in the required colours (yarn used for picture Ricorumi, 100% cotton yarns)
• 3mm crochet hook
• 9mm black safety eyes
• Polyester toy stuffing -Small buttons (alternative instructions are provided if giving to a child under 36 months as buttons can be a choking hazard)

Please always check materials and current safety standards before giving to a small child.

Any yarn can be used with an appropriate sized hook, although other weights of yarn will affect the size of the finished item. No required tension, as long as it is worked fairly tightly.
