- Size 4 worsted weight yarn (100g of main body color; small amount of light brown and color of choice for scarf and flower)
- Crochet thread or embroidery floss for the facial feature
- 3.5mm crochet hook
- 5mm crochet hook (for the scarf)
- 12mm safety eyes

If you would prefer an alternative to plastic safety eyes these are my favorites!
Abbreviations (US Terminology)
SC – Single crochet
SC INC – Single crochet increase
INV DEC – Invisible decrease
HDC – Half double crochet
DC – Double crochet
St(s) – Stitch(es)
Rep – Repeat
We will be working in continuous rounds, I recommend using a stitch marker either at the beginning or end of each round to help keep track. Slowly stuff as you go, you will want each part to be firm but not stretched.
Note: You will be using your 3.5mm hook for the majority of the pattern. The 5mm hook will be used solely for the scarf.
Legs and Body –

Fasten off on the first leg only. When you are finished with the 2nd leg proceed to round 23 to join the legs and start the body.
Round 23: Chain 3 and attach to the first leg with a SC, SC in the remaining stitches around the leg. When you reach the chain complete a SC across each of the 3 chains, SC in the remaining stitches of the next leg and SC across each of the 3 chains again. (42)
You will end up crocheting across each side of the chain, this acts as a bridge to join the legs together. This completes your join and is where your next round will start.

Assembling the Head
1. Sew the ears onto the body at the 5th round on each side.
2. With body color we will make the ‘wooly’ patch between the ears. Create a slip knot and slip stitch into the stitch closest to the ear as pictured below.
Chain 16 and slip stitch into the next stitch towards the other ear. Continue this process until you reach the other ear (this completes one row of ‘wool’). Slip stitch into the next stitch towards the back of the head and complete another row back across to the first ear. Feel free to add additional rows to your liking.
3. If you’ve made a flower, sew onto the ear of your choice.

Tail
With body color
Round 1: Create a magic circle with 8 SC
Round 2: SC INC in each st (16)

ScarfWith color of choice and 5mm hook, chain 78
Row 1: HDC in the 2nd chain from your hook and in each chain across, chain 1 and turn (77)
Rows 2-3: HDC across (77)
Cut 4 strands of yarn about 6 inches long, slip stitch each one into the ends of the scarf to create a fringe. I left my starting and ending yarn there as fringe as well, no need to weave them end. Cut all strands to make them even as needed.
Final Assembly
1. Sew the head onto the body, making sure to have the facial features centered. Add extra stuffing in to the neck as you go to keep it firm and less wobbly.
2. Next, sew the arms onto the body centered with the head at round 45.
3. Sew the tail to the back of the body, adding stuffing as you go.
4. Lastly, I folded the scarf in half around the neck and pulled the ends through the loop.
