Finally you can create a Bango Ru of your very own!

Fans of the Disney show Phineas and Ferb will recognize these little guys as the fictional Japanese toys that are all the rage for the citizens of Danville. Each Bango Ru is a cross between two different animals and has features of both.

This pattern will allow you to make a Platy-Parrot, a cute mix of both platypus and parrot. The finished toy will measure approximately 11 inches tall and 7 inches wide from arm to arm. The pattern itself will be e-mailed to you as a PDF with detailed instructions and pictures within 24 hours of your purchase.

This is an intermediate pattern. To complete it you will need:

• size H (5 mm) crochet hook
• 5 colors of worsted weight yarn. About ½ a skein of red, and scraps of white, black, purple, yellow, and dark pink
• polyester stuffing
• embroidery thread
• tapestry needle
