Materials and tools

• Yarn for the bull:
“YarnArt Jeans” (Cotton 55%, 45% acrylic, (50g / 160m)
Brown -main;
Light brown – for horns and muzzle;
White – for the eyes;

• Yarn for the bauble:
“YarnArt Gold yarn” (acrylic 92%, metal 8%, 100 g. - 400 m)
Red - for the Christmas ball;
You can use any smooth yarn, acrylic, wool, etc, but it should be of the same thickness to make sure it will be suitable for the size of the Styrofoam bauble (you can use stuffing instead of a bauble)

• Styrofoam bauble – 5 or 6 cm/ 2 inches in diameter (or use stuffing).
• Stuffing for toys – Fiberfill
• Long tapestry needle (for sewing using yarn)
• Crochet hook for the Bull – I used 1.5 mm or any other suitable size for the selected yarn
• Black thread (for embroidering the middle of the eye);
• Crochet hook for the ball – I used 2.5 mm or any other suitable size for the selected yarn
• Embellishment for decorating the bauble.
• A pair of half-beads with a diameter of 5 mm (2 pcs.) or black thread if you want to embroider the eyes;
• Glue for attaching the half-beads onto the head.
