This pattern is worked up as flat sections sewn together and stuffed, you may also want to use something (such as dried rice, polyester toy filling beans) to weight it down slightly and a piece of cardboard to line the hut to give it a bit more stability.

Gauge is not too important for this as long as the finished pieces are firm and not too ‘holey’! I used a 4mm hook but you may want to go down to a 3.5mm. Unfortunately the yarn I used -Stylecraft kon tiki- is now discontinued, in its place I would use Patons 100% cotton or Anchor style Creativa yarn.
