V. Notes
• This pattern uses standard US crochet terminology.
• The total number of stitches for each row is indicated in parentheses at the end of each
row instruction.
• The Head (including the Eyes, Ears, Mouth, Eyebrows, Nose, Whiskers, and Snakes) is assembled first, followed separately from the rest of the body. This is to minimize the amount of unnecessary pulling/stretching between the head and body that would occur if the facial details were added after attaching the head to the body.
• Make sure the Head, Legs, and Body are firmly stuffed so that the Legs and Body can support the Head.
• Lightly stuff the Arms; they should be pliable enough to hang at either side of the body.
• Make sure to place a stitch marker in the first stitch of each row so as not to lose your
place. I’ve decided to not to do this so many times and always regretted it!
• The yarn color palate is ONLY a suggestion. Your Meow Medusa should be any color(s) YOU want!
