Nessie Jr
I like to think that the Loch Ness Monster doesn’t live all alone and perhaps has a happy little family down in the depths of the Loch. Nessie Jr. is a little insecure about swimming, and needs a life preserver to help keep afloat. It’s hard to hide from the tourists when you’ve got a floaty around your neck though, so if you’ve noticed a spike in Nessie sightings that might be why.
Use this pattern to make your own Nessie Jr and bring a little piece of Scottish folklore to life.
