Woohoo! I am so pleased to bring you a little piggy pattern here on the blog today! This has got to be the cuddliest lil’ toy you could ever make (made with velvet yarn), plusssss I made this one for my one-year-old niece this Christmas, and I’m not exaggerating when I say there was squealing, clapping and extensive hugging involved.

I am so happy this piggy toy turned out as imagined (actually based of a rough sketch on a scratch piece of paper during dinner one night!). I think it’s just simply cute. And if you know me at all simple and cute are two of my favorite things!

The pattern for lil’ piggy includes lots of pics for assistance on the assembly, in hopes to make your life easier! And I actually think it works up fairly quickly because of the bulkiness of the yarn.

Most important of all, I think this pig made the perfect gift. I hope the child (or adult?!) in your life gets some joy out of this gem if you make it for them.
