Due to many possible variations of antennae, eyes, mouth and colors each and every Alien is unique.
Perfect for using up some scrap yarn, too.

SIZE

• The size depends on your gauge, chosen type of yarn and crochet hook size.
• I'm using Puppets Lyric yarn (8/8, DK/Light-Worsted) from Coats and a 3.0 mm hook.

• With heavier/lighter yarn the figures will be bigger/smaller.
