This pikachu was made using back loops only. This technique creates a thinner, stretchier fabric. In order to keep the stuffing from showing through I recommend using a hook that is 1-1.5mm smaller than is recommended for a given yarn weight.

This pikachu is 10in tall to the tip of the ear to the bottom of the body using worsted weight yarn.

This is the first pattern I have ever designed! Let me know what you guys think! :)
