Crochet a Raccoon – a Standing Raccoon with a Ringed Tail (EN & DE)

IMPORTANT: You are buying a PDF pattern, NOT the finished item.

This pattern contains both languages: English and German.

Crochet pattern for a raccoon with a ringed tail – a PDF in English and German, with photos for every step and stitch counts for every round.

A standing raccoon in grey and white with the classic black mask, big turquoise eyes and a white-and-black ringed tail.

The hands and feet are what make him: the fingers and toes are crocheted one by one and then joined, so his paw really looks like a raccoon hand instead of a stump. The eyes are made entirely from yarn as well – no safety eyes needed. Both are explained step by step, with lots of photos.

️ Bilingual: English and German, both versions included
️ Richly illustrated – including the fiddly parts of the hands and feet
️ Every round written out separately, with the stitch count in brackets
️ The eyes are made entirely from yarn, no safety eyes needed
️ PDF for instant download, readable on screen and printable

The figure is made up of many small pieces – fingers, toes, eyes and muzzle. Every round is written out separately with the stitch count in brackets, and the fiddly parts are illustrated with several photos.

The racoon will became about 20 cm tall.
