Notes

Pattern is written very well, easy to follow, with clear directions and helpful pictures. Thank you!
I only made some changes on the rows. Instruction is written in steps. I prefer rows - I rarely use markers.

I was asked to make a simplified version of this soft airplane toy.
I like the blue one better as this yarn created a denser crochet fabric.
The red one is a bit too soft for this toy. But looks good.

My mods and notes -
4 rows of grey color, complete rounds;
the rest of the toy body was made following the pattern, in spiral rows.
Stuffed it “as I go”.
Propellers are made with 2mm thick, black soft foamies sheets from JoAnn
