Finished size: 10cm Sitting height
All parts are knitted flat and sewn up at the end. The body is worked with chunky bouclé yarn. You can also use fleecy teddy bear yarn.
The double-pointed needles are used for creating i-cords for the horns. While you can also use straight needles, DPNs are particularly convenient for crafting i-cords. The instructions for making the i-cord are included in the pattern. The project calls for small amounts of yarn. Feel free to use your stash.
