Whether he’s for a child or an adult, this happy smiley is sure to brighten up all who are around him. The soft bulky yarn used in this pattern makes it the perfect gift for any child seeking to cuddle with a loving stuffed animal. Even for an adult, it serves as a simplistic but joyful decoration in addition to any room. This pattern is a simple work-in-the-round type, making it perfect for beginners looking for an easy project with an adorable outcome.

The final dimensions are 6” wide by 4.5” tall. If you would like for the smiley to be larger, changing to a bigger hook (from the original 6.5 mm hook) or a looser tension will boost the size up a decent amount. Besides the hook and yarn you will need:

• stuffing
• two 16 mm black plastic eyes
• a small amount of black fabric and glue
