nooOOOO! Don’t look into the eyes!! You’ll turn into stone…!

Medusa’s body is knitted, her snake-hair is crocheted, but if you live in a hook-free zone a similar effect could be achieved with knitted i-cord. You will also need some kind of stuffing, red and white felt for the facial features, and sew-on or safety eyes. (Don’t worry, the eyes don’t have any magic powers straight away, so the toymaker is safe until FO status is achieved).
