Sweet Little Mouse

A crochet pattern for a little mouse. Explained in detail, so it is also suitable for crochet beginners. After it is made, the little mouse is
about 40 cm tall, depending on the yarn used. 
For this project you will need: A crochet hook size 2-2.5, a darning needle or a doll needle for
sewing the body parts together, a row marker or a thread in
a contrasting color to mark the beginning of the rounds, buttons or
beads for the eyes, approx. 10 mm (I used lentil beads), a
pair of scissors, yarn in gray (approx. 250g 50g/115m), and pink (approx. 50g)
You should know the following: single crochet
half double crochet
slip stitch
But you can also work with other colors and yarn compositions.
You just need to make sure that you use a smaller hook
than the manufacturer indicates on the label. This is
important so that the stitches are not too loose and the stuffing
does not poke out through the small holes after filling

The elephant as a music box
a music box where no string can get wrapped around little arms or legs. Watch the video and please pay attention to the trunk — it pulls in. The elephant is a soft cuddly toy for cuddling and holding and can safely be taken to bed. This gift is something truly special.
