Notes

I bought the yarn from Hobbycraft on a buy2 get one free. Bought 3 balls cream and 3 beige, but paid for 4. A total of £24 - £4 each. I will probably use 3 cream and 2 beige £20 total. Loving the wool, pattern and making!

2 April - Update - ouch my hands hurt! Head hair done and 2/3rds of the way up the body.

When working through backs of loops in a spiral you normally get a large step. To decrease this, in last stitch of previous row, slip it instead of sc. work Through backs as normal until last stitch and do this as a slip stitch through the back of the loop.

4 April - all crochet finished - just need to make up but my hands hurt too much!

I decided to use plastic safety joints so waited for them to arrive

9 April all done except the ears to sew on but way too tired. He’s absolutely adorable! I love him!
