Please note that this is not the finished product. This purchase contains detailed PDF instructions (51 pages) on how to crochet this toy. The file will be available for download immediately after purchase.

All steps are documented by detailed desciption, step-by-step photos and video demonstration, where I will crochet the whole model with you.

Prior experience with crocheting is recommended for this project. However, I believe that with enough determination it is perfectly doable by beginners as well. All stitches are explained by provided video tutorials. It is also a great project for those who dislike sewing like me, because no sewing is required during the process.


SIZE

If you use recommended yarn and hook size, the finished toy will be approximately 27 cm tall (10.6 inches). Totally, you will make 2904 stitches and it will take you about 5 hours.
