Sesame the Stork - 9 Page PDF

Sesame is a bird who likes being busy and by busy I mean attempting too many jobs at a time! But he always makes time for the extra special duties, like delivering babies safely to their new families.

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 troll 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
• double crochet
• increase/decrease
• front/back loop only
• slip stitch

You will need the following materials:

Yarn: Stylecraft Special Dk - Acrylic - 100g/295m/323 yards
1 ball of each colour (you won’t need full balls): White 1001, Black 1002, Graphite 1063 and Spice 1711.
For the baby and basket, the colours are entirely up to you!
