I was inspired to make this pattern after Comic Con last year, where a lot of people cosplayed as Deadpool - also with the highly anticipated new film coming out in February 2016 any time would be great to make your own Deadpool!

Perfect for the slightly more experience crocheter (rather than the complete beginner), Deadpool is worked in the round with DK yarn. All terms are written using US crochet terms (e.g. a ‘sc’/single crochet is a UK ‘dc’/double crochet).

He is decidedly less threatening than your usual mercenary, and is also a little chubbier and cuddlier too!

Finished Deadpool is about 20 cm/7.5 inches tall.
