Whether shared as a token of affection or given on special occasions, this sweet pocket-sized buddy makes one of the most heartwarming gifts to brighten anyone’s day!

Difficulty Level: Advanced Beginner / Easy

Why this level:
The main body consists of standard single crochet stitches worked in continuous rounds. However, it requires joining two rounded top domes seamlessly without leaving gaps, neatly decreasing down to a tapered point, and working in very tight, narrow rounds (6 stitches) for the little legs.

• Crochet Hook: 2.5 mm

• Safety Eyes: 1 pair (small black beads or safety eyes)

• Polyester Fiberfill Stuffing

Special Stitch Technique: Double Crochet Decrease (dc dec / dc2tog)

Used on the curved bend of the little feet to create an ankle angle:

1. Yarn over, insert hook into the indicated stitch (or front loop).

2. Yarn over and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook).

3. Yarn over and pull through first 2 loops (2 loops remain on hook).

4. Yarn over, insert hook into the next stitch (or front loop).

5. Yarn over and pull up a loop (4 loops on hook).

6. Yarn over and pull through first 2 loops (3 loops remain on hook).

7. Yarn over and pull through all 3 loops remaining on the hook.
   (This cleanly merges two double crochet stitches into one, tapering the foot into the leg.)
