Notes

Finished just in time! Leaving in an hour for Long Island and Thanksgiving dinner.

Should have used an E or F hook for the face since it was Vanna’s Choice and the brown was Red Heart Soft, but I’ll live. Started off with 6mm eyes, tortured myself to get the backs on and then they both just shot through the head and popped off, so I went with 9mm eyes instead.

Unexpectedly easy pattern. I thought it was going to be a lot tougher and I absolutely LOVE how it came out. If I had made this one a few weeks ago like I planned, I would have made more.
