Gazall Baby Cotton 50g 165m

Alize Cotton Gold 100g 330m

Tools

Hook 2-2.5

Scissors

Needle for sewing ears and weights

Markers, threads of contrasting colors

Decoration

Clothing buttons

Yarn for clothing of any colors, leftover yarn can be used

Stuffing (holofiber, polyester fiberfill)

USAGE RULES

All educational materials are copyrighted. Transmission, copying, resale is prohibited.

Crochet in continuous rounds, in a spiral, do not make a turning chain at the end of the row.

Do not turn the work unless specified.

Always use a marker, a thread of contrasting color, mark the first stitch of each new row.

For crocheting the toy, you can use absolutely any yarn, but if you use a completely different yarn, the toy may deform. Always try to find a similar one.

Also, choose the hook size based on your tension. If you have large holes forming, use a smaller hook.

Stuff the toy tightly enough so that it doesn’t lose its shape but remains soft and pleasant to touch, ensuring the stitches don’t stretch or create holes.
