Description
Sly the Fox Stuffie was designed for a baby shower gift for a special friend to compliment Sly the Fox Blanket and Sly the Fox Hat (patterns sold separately) however, any child would be happy to snuggle this cute little fox or take it along on their adventures.

There are several different techniques used to make this amigurumi project which are all explained in detail in the pattern with written instructions and picture tutorials. There are also YouTube tutorials for additional explanation.
