Crochet pattern by

Before you start...
Please read the pattern in full before you start crocheting. It will give you a better sense of
how the toy is made and assembled at the end.
The pattern is worked in rows joined with slip stitch. Therefore, each row starts with ch 1 and
the first stitch goes in the 2nd loop from the hook. The pattern uses US terminology.
Magic ring is always R1.
The pattern uses offset increases and decreases to create more round and smooth shapes.
The finished toy measures approximately 15 cm (6"). If you want a bigger toy you can change
the yarn weight and hook size accordingly.
Materials Note:

Assembly
Sew the white spots on the hat.
Align the head and the body with pins before sewing so the head won’t end up crooked. Important! Sew
together the head and body’s R27, leaving the “neck frill” out.
Sew the hat on the head.
Your toy is now finished :)
