Lion Brand Construction Notes:

Alligator is knit in pieces – back, belly, and 4 legs. Both the back and belly pieces begin at the tail end, and work toward the head. Because the back is worked in garter stitch, and because it should be slightly rounded when stuffed, it has more rows than the belly piece, and is wider than the belly piece.
