Pink Piggy Tanoshi Doll - pdf knitting pattern.

Cute Chinese New year gift.
The toy is knitted in the round and that is why the pattern is recommended for Advanced Beginner Knitters.
Materials needed

• 4 double-pointed needles size US 2 (3 mm).
• Cream and pink colored yarns for doll. I used Bernat Satin yarn / 100% Acrylic; 100 gr (3.5oz) – 182m (199yds)./ Yarn weight - Worsted /10-Ply
• Toy stuffing
• Yarn needle
• Stitch holder
• Black Plastic eyes (6 mm)
• Blue Plastic eyes (8 mm)
• Dark Brown yarn for hair

All rows are worked in the round, this helps avoid ugly seams.
