Thank you for showing interest in the listing for Zoe the Zebra Mini Plushie Pattern from Homebound & Hooked. Zoe is so excited to be your next project! This pattern includes a 9-page PDF file with detailed instructions and pictures explaining how to crochet and assemble all the parts to make a zebra – providing instructions on how to work up the head, mane, body, ears, tail and legs. It also includes color change indications and guidelines to help you create either a standing or sitting plushie. When worked in plush yarn, you can make an adorable mini plushie. When worked in worsted or dk weight, it makes the cutest keychain-sized plushie. Try it both ways and see which you like best!

Upon using #6 weight Bernat Blanket and a 8.00 mm hook, your creation will be the approximate sizes:
L8”xW6”xD6”
Upon using #4 worsted weight and a 3.25 mm(D) hook, your creation will be the approximate sizes:
L4”xW3”xD3”
