Pancetta the Pig - 20 Page PDF - has two extra buddies

Pancetta is a British Landrace and loves nothing more than to trot around his home with his friends and getting into so much mischief. For a little piggy, he has so much courage, he can even cause wars between the trolls over the mushrooms he finds. Who said your best friend had to be covered in fur.
You can also make his Hampshire and Kunekune buddy too.

This PDF includes the written instructions in US terms and step-by-step photos detailing how to make the pieces to finish your creation. When made with DK weight yarn (sample made in Stylecraft Special DK) and a 2.0mm hook, the finished ox will measure around 20cm/8” tall.

The project can be made using any weighted yarn, just adjust the hook size to match your choice.

You’ll need to know how to:

• make a Magic Ring or a chain 2 equivalent
• work in a round
• single crochet
• increase/decrease
• half double crochet
