The Sad Old Mosquito
This is written in US terms, in English only.
Make your own giant, sad mosquito with this easy to follow pattern. Item will be approximately 19 inches long and is perfect for cuddling. In order for the eyes to fit, you’ll want to use yarn that is similar in weight to I Love This Yarn or Red Heart Super Saver Weight 4 yarns. Sinker eyes will need to be downsized approximately 10 mm smaller in order to fit (so 20 mm instead of 30 mm). If you use thinner yarn, you’ll need to use smaller eyes. It’s a tight fit!
This pattern does not include any videos, however they can be added if people need more help than the pattern offers. There are multiple photos in this pattern to help you along the way. There is sewing involved - you’ll have to sew on the legs and the wings.
