MATERIALS AND TOOLS

• Main pink and brown yarn for the main parts of the toy – I used yarn that has approximately 375 m in a 100g skein (see Gauge section).

Tip: You can use any moderately fluffy yarn (wool, acrylic, etc). The thicker the yarn, the bigger your toy will be.

• White yarn for the whites of the eyes – it should be slightly thinner than your main yarn.
• Matching crochet hooks. I used 1.75 mm crochet hook for the main yarn and 1.5 mm crochet hook for the white yarn.
• Two black beads or half beads for the pupils of the eyes – I used 3-4 mm in diameter.
• Single core copper PVC electrical wire – I used wire approximately 80 cm / 31.5 inches long 1 mm in diameter for the body and approximately 50 cm / 19.7 inches of wire 0.75 mm in diameter for the ears.
• Stuffing.
• Adhesive fabric tape approximately 1 cm wide to wrap the wire ends.
• Strong thread for needle sculpting.
• Any material to add weight into the bottom of the toy.
• For cotter pin joints (optional) - 2 discs – I used 35 mm in diameter, 2 washers – I used 15 mm in diameter, 1 cotter pin, pliers
