Given the circumstances we find ourselves in this year (2020), I decided to create this little guy in a fit of gallows humour. Also because I can’t trust the ads I see on social media selling items like really cute plague doctor plushies; most of them are scams and I’m a bit ashamed to say I’ve been stung before. So when we can’t buy what we want, we make it ourselves. It’s what crafters do.

Worked in 8ply/DK yarn, this project measures approximately 12cm tall.

Stitches used: slst, dc, dc2tog, crab stitch (reverse dc), magic ring

Random thought: Plague doctors always remind me of the guys from Spy vs Spy. Huh.
