With this very detailed pattern, you can make an almost seamless super cute realistic (knitting) badger. This .pdf crochet pattern is written in standard American crochet terms.

Size
If you use the recommended yarn, your badger will be 5.1 inch /13 cm high.

Materials
For this crochet badger you’ll need worsted weight yarn and an E US/3.5 mm crochet hook. You’ll need three or four colours of yarn: mixed black 0005, white 0051, grey 0057 and light grey 0056. If you don’t feel like using four colours you can leave out the light grey. For the eyes I’ve used 7 mm animal eyes. You will also need fibrefill and pellets for a bit of extra weight in the body (I use Hama beads).

The crochet pattern contains
An intro with useful info. List of materials, tools and accessories needed. Brand and colour numbers of the needed yarn. A clear and colour coded description of how to crochet and assemble the animal, with instruction images next to the text and example pictures at the bottom to help you get everything right. All my patterns are text edited for correct English and have been tested by an experienced crocheter before publishing.

Yarn
Istex Lett lopi. I strongly recommend using a fuzzy yarn because it gives the best result.

Gauge is unimportant for this pattern. If the pieces are crocheted tightly enough, they will not gape visibly when stuffed. You can make a little test swap to be sure.
