After the orange outfit version of the crochet cosplay baby pig plushie, learn how to crochet this strawberry pig plush with a FREE pattern. This variant requires just two changes in the pattern and becomes an ultimate huggable plushie for both spring and summer. You will be using dragonfruit pink for the outfit instead of red, as it looks more appealing to me and also makes it look different from the apple version of this plushie.
With the yellow embroidery seeds all around, you will add as a final detail, the hoodie looks more elegant than the first version. Just like last time, you can also make the costume removable (but who will want to lose that cuteness!). Anyway, below is the FREE pattern written in US terms!
