Our latest creation is a lion. Of course, without his mane, he would make a lovely lioness!

Finished Size:
Approximately 29 cm (11.5 inches) long and 20 cm (8 inches) tall.

Materials:
• Yarn 8 ply/DK or appropriate in yellow (approx. 260 m, 285 yards)
and brown (approx. 100 m, 110 yards)(see note below)
• Crochet hook (3 mm) or appropriate
• Safety eyes and nose (optional)
• Stuffing

You can use any yarn and crochet hook combination that gives you good tension. Normally this would be a hook around two sizes smaller than that recommended on the yarn label. For the lion I used a 3 mm hook with 8ply/DK acrylic yarn.

The pattern is written in English with US crochet terminology.
